Hi All,
We have Kafka cluster deployed in Kubernetes and running with docker image
(solsson/kafka:2.4.0)
I have below logging configuration: config/log4j.properties

and stdout

child logger is used otherwise

Problem Statement:
logs are getting piled up and using more disk and pods are going to evicted
state.
I would like to know the best approach to rotate the logs and archive
(kafka component wise & provided size e.g: 10 MB), so that I can analyze
logs and save the disk space.
