There are plenty of options for handling log rotation. Apache's rotatelogs works well. Personally I use DJB's multilog (as part of a daemontools approach). If you're interested in using daemontools, check out the tools/slon-mkservice.sh script (currently only in CVS / the 1.2.10 pre-release tarballs).
If you're already using logrotate, then I guess I could see sticking with it. I don't see any good reason to pick it over the alternatives for a first install though. I think that any solution that requires copytruncate is poorly conceived, since the algorithm wastes IO. If you must use logrotate, I'd consider simply killing and restarting the slon as part of your rotation process. Andrew On 6/18/07, Bill Willits <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Yes, logrotate will work fine.
