Hi all, I contributed JDK-7090324: gclog rotation via external tool to be synchronized with logrotated tool on Linux.
I think JEP 158 is in progress. However, this JEP does not contain log rotation via external tool in the spec. I want to rotate logs via jcmd in this JEP. I've updated a patch for it: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ysuenaga/jvmlogging-logrotate/ This patch provides new option "rotate" in VM.log command. If this change can be accepted, I will file it to JBS and send RFR. Thanks, Yasumasa
