Andre F de Miranda commented on NIFI-2962:
------------------------------------------
Just as a comment on this.
The logback config is quite explicit on this:
bq. The optional maxHistory property controls the maximum number of archive
files to keep, asynchronously deleting older files. For example, if you specify
monthly rollover, and set maxHistory to 6, then 6 months worth of archives
files will be kept with files older than 6 months deleted. Note as old archived
log files are removed, any folders which were created for the purpose of log
file archiving will be removed as appropriate.
> Default conf/logback comment for maxHistory is misleading and incorrect

> Ahh, that would explain it! Maybe we can change the comment in logback.xml

> <!-- keep 30 log files worth of history -->
> <maxHistory>30</maxHistory>
