Hi Gerald,
if I'm not wrong, you can automatically zip your log files when they are
rotated by modifying the log4j2 configuration. That would save you from
manually zipping them periodically.
Edit the `config/log4j2.xml` file, and set the extension in the filePattern
property to 'gz'. E.g.:
filePattern="${log.dir}/dspace.log-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.gz"
Tim, maybe, should the default config be changed to compress the old log
files by default?
Cheers,
Abel
