Re: Log Rotation

[Tim Penhey]

We don't give loggo a file at all, it is written to stdout (or stderr).

This is then handled by our upstart scripts and redirected into a file.

I *think* there are upstart hooks for log rotation as well, but I may
well be wrong on that.

Re: Log Rotation

[Nate Finch]

Oh yeah, I realize I was looking at the commands.  I just grepped for loggo
usage.

We could be giving it a file, though. Why redirect through upstart?
