SV: [asterisk-users] Manage 'full' log file

[jan.sarin at securia.se]

Super! Thanks! Now I see how the script works a bit more clearly. :)

I still don't understand what happens if I run:
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger rotate'

Can I run the above without having the script? What will the command do?

Regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,
You should use the logrotate in order to delete the log on periodic intervals. This article is meant to do exactly the opposite :)
http://astrecipes.net/index.php?n=205 but you get an idea of how to setup log file rotation and how to notify Asterisk that it should open a new file after the log rotation.

Hope this helps
l.
