Dear Geeks,
does anyone have experience w/ cloning Rackspace Cloud Server Ubunutu
Instances?
I have found that for syslog to operate smoothly, the files "syslog" and
syslog.* in /var/log should be removed and then the system should be
restarted. (If I could figure out how to restart syslog (rsyslogd) I'd
do that, but I'm a Debian guy ;-) )
So is it appropriate to run "rm -r /var/log/* /var/log/*.*" after a new
clone is instantiated? The underlying assumption being: we have a new
server, it should see a clean slate in the log files and NOT see the old
logs from the previous instance from which we cloned.
Thanx, any insight appreciated.
