1. to keep (certain system logs i.e-secure, messages, audit) logs for a period of 6 months (24 weeks)
Here's how I was planning on doing it
1. Rotate the logs for 24 weeks on weekly basis before removing them
2. But not before compressing the old logs weekly
So my logs would look like this
The other way I was planning is it to rotate it on monthly basis:
1. Rotate the logs each month for 6 months before removing them
2. But not before compressing the old logs monthly
Also I have about 4G of space on /var and if disk space is exhausted I can just add in another disk.
I know this will totally consume /var but they're really fussy about the logs so I have no choice but to keep them, however I can definitely housekeep these files if they grow too large and recall later from backup tapes..hope this is clear enough for your understanding
