Newbie Tomcat user here. I installed Tomcat 8.5.9 on CentOS 7 a few days ago and noticed the default log files for catalina, host-manager, localhost, and manager are created fresh each day with a date in their filename.
Doesn't this fill up the directory over time? Wouldn't it be better to have the logs accumulate in one file for some time? Can someone set my expectations what the default logging behavior is, then recommend a general approach to configuring something more manageable (from a sheer number-of-files standpoint)?
