Thank you for your response. I see your commit on the logrotate script. Although that alone would fix it I agree with you that fixing it both ways is more reliable. :) I will create a but report as requested. Regarding your comment on disk space we had issues with that as wel. Not so much for /var but in fact /usr (review 21696 CLOUDSTACK-6716). In my opinion having a lean and mean svm is fine. A better solution, when it comes to logging, would be to send it to the control ip with syslog. We're working on a patch that gives you the opportunity to do without losing local logging. I'll include you in the review request one i've finished it. - Joris ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
