Managing log rotation in Linux

 Add new file to rotation:

• copy one of /etc/logrotate.d/* configuration files to working (e.g. home) directory, name it e.g. new-file
• vim new-file
• change path to point to new (existing) file to be rotated
• change other parameters, if needed
• sudo mv new-file /etc/logrotate.d/
• sudo chown root:root /etc/logrotate.d/new-file

Dry run:

logrotate -d /etc/logrotate.d/new-file

Forced rotation:

sudo logrotate -vf /etc/logrotate.d/new-file
