centos is setup using logrotate, which rotates logs according to various
conf files (/etc/logrotate.conf has the global defaults, and
/etc/logrotate.d/* has the app specific settings)
this is normally invoked

If I understood well what you are looking for, to manually rotate your
logs, you could launch logrotate as follows:
logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/

copy/truncate.
copy log file to a new file and truncate the original
(cat /dev/null >filename)
Or setup a logrotate config with the copytruncate option.
There is a chance I believe to drop some log events between
