On one of Solaris 10 server, apache service is running. Due to audit requirement, its error_log grows bigger and we are required to keep that. Sometimes it grows more than 200GB and fills up file-system.
Purpose is, if error_log touches 10GB, apache service should stop, error_log should move to error_log_xxxxxx and spache service start.
Application team wants to use a script, which looks straightforward. Below is part of that script
error_log is owned by root, so application user (which will run that script via his cron) will not be able to mv that file. If I can give 'sudo mv' to his id with absolute path, this should serve the purpose, I think.
But I am not able to figure out, what should be syntax in /etc/sudoers for mv command mentioned in above script.
Help please.

i have defined a rule in the sudoers file so a specific user is able to run some commands as sudo with no password.
my question is: is it possible to restrict a user to run commands as sudo only in a certain directory? for example: chown only the files that are located in /var/tmp.
Thank you.
