WA access logs

This is what I ended up doing and is working as desired.

 

(Note: I opted for a daily rotation schedule. This unit is not in production yet. I may need to tune it down once it starts logging in a high traffic environment.)

 

 

1. Create a temp file /var/tmp/wa-logrotate.txt with following contents:

 

logrotate {

 

wa include "/var/log/wa/access/*.log {

 

compress

 

ifempty

 

rotate 4

 

daily

 

olddir /var/log/wa/access/archive

 

sharedscripts

 

postrotate

 

/bin/kill -HUP `/sbin/pidof -s pvac 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true

 

endscript

 

}

 

"

 

}

 

 

 

 

2. run: bpsh < /var/tmp/wa-logrotate.txt

 

 

3. run: bigpipe save all

 

 

4. test configuration by running: logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.d/wa

 

 

Note: I have not applied the above mentioned hot fixes yet, so i'm not sure how this will work once the box is updated (cross that bridge later). Until I do so, this is working fine.
