Sonal Ojha commented on CLOUDSTACK-6885:
----------------------------------------
I tried that and by moving the logrotate from cron.daily to cron.hourly things
went as expected. So the logrotate is specifying the dateext to rotate the
file, we might want to change that. I believe if we disable it the logs would
be using extensions something like .log.1 or such, but something I have to try.
> system-vm rsyslog logs rotation does not work properly
