All,
I'm currently trying to compose a playbook to remove log files that are
older than 90 days and then gzip the remaining files that are older than 7
days.
I'm attempting to use the cron module of Ansible to do this but havign a
bit of trouble.
Here's what I've done so far:
Created a job in my main.yml file
- name: Cron job to purge log files older than 90 days and gzip files on a
daily rotation
cron: minute="59" hour="23" weekday="*"
name="freeradius log file rotation"
cron_file="freeradius"
user="root"
job="/etc/cron.d/freeradius"
tags:
- cronradius
My cron_file (freeradius) looks like this:
find /var/log/freeradius/radacct/ -mtime +90 -print0 | xargs -0 rm && find /
var/log/freeradius/radacct/ -type f -mtime +7 -print0 | xargs -0 gzip
When I run the playbook against a server it copies the freeradius file
across to /etc/cron.d/freeradius but when I "type" the contents of that
file it displays:
59 23 * * * root /etc/cron.d/freeradius
and as a result I think this is incorrect, it appears to not be referencing
the find command...
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Regards
Colin
