我有日志轮换的问题。我正在使用 rsyslog 从某些 Cisco 套件收集相当大量的系统日志数据。
标准系统日志文件可以正常旋转/清理，但我添加的系统日志文件却不能。这是我的配置文件：
user@server:/var/log/remote$ cat /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog
/var/log/syslog
{
rotate 7
daily
missingok
notifempty
delaycompress
compress
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
/var/log/mail.info
/var/log/mail.warn
/var/log/mail.err
/var/log/mail.log
/var/log/daemon.log
/var/log/kern.log
/var/log/auth.log
/var/log/user.log
/var/log/lpr.log
/var/log/cron.log
/var/log/debug
/var/log/messages
{
rotate 4
weekly
missingok
notifempty
compress
delaycompress
sharedscripts
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
/var/log/remote/*
{
rotate 10
hourly
missingok
compress
delaycompress
sharedscripts
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
几天后，包含系统日志文件的目录如下所示：
user@server:/var/log/remote$ ls -l

你知道为什么他们要复制并获得多个后缀而不是像这样清理吗？
user@server:/var/log$ ls -l sys*

user@server:/var/log$ ^C
答案1
/var/log/remote/*最后一条规则匹配所有文件，包括由其他规则创建的 *gz 。
例如，您应该制作更好的正则表达式10*.log或匹配特定文件。
如：
/var/log/remote/10*.log
{
rotate 10
hourly
missingok
compress
delaycompress
sharedscripts
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
