Gavin,
I really do appreciate your one-liner. But is there any more insight into
this? I know I have to use Logrotate, but I have no idea how I can actually
get it done.

I'm going to try and figure it out right now, but for the benefit of the
list and archives, it just might be good if solutions could be posted here
too.

Thanks,
Mark.

PS: Remember, many people get their answers from mailing list archives. So
we'd rather get them solved than getting the same question on the list 3
months later. Smile

It's like asking for directions, and someone tells you to drive,
useless.

Here is what we do here:
Create /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk:
/var/log/asterisk/asterisk-verbose /var/log/asterisk/messages
/var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/queue_log {
daily
rotate 7
compress
missingok
notifempty
sharedscripts
postrotate
/usr/local/bin/log_rot_ast
endscript
}

/usr/local/bin/log_rot_ast contains:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload' >/dev/null 2>&1

"logger reload" rotates logs. But not CSV . That's because the CSV CDR
files are not held open.

If they are not held open, you can can just move them away with "mv",
next CDR should just write new file.

Yup, drive. Or in Gavin's case "Fly".
Really appreciate your help, Darryl. Thanks a lot.

I'm attempting to use this now as is, but Tzafrir points out that this might
not rotate Master.csv in /cdr-custom. In such a case, what would I need to
do?

Thanks again,
Mark.

While maybe a little too non-cli for some folks, I like to use
Webmin's GUI for setting up log rotation. Nice, quick, easy, hard to
get it wrong....

Here is what we do here:

/var/log/asterisk/asterisk-verbose /var/log/asterisk/messages

logrotate can be used to rotate any files you want. So just add
a logrotate definition to /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk:

/path/to/my/cdr-custom/Master.csv {
daily
rotate 7
compress
missingok
notifempty
}

In my installations, I have total control via Webmin and can create
and alter existing log file rotations via an easy to follow GUI.
YMMV. Maybe you have a dev box you can try it on? Installation is
simple. I recommend putting it on a non-standard port and not using
the default username admin. You could also install it but don't have
it run as a service.

Webmin is nice for a good many things nix, I am a fan. Just secure it
as much as possible.

Thanks,
Steve T

It's like asking for directions, and someone tells you to drive,
useless.

Here is what we do here:
Create /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk:
/var/log/asterisk/asterisk-verbose /var/log/asterisk/messages
/var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/queue_log {
daily
rotate 7
compress
missingok
notifempty
sharedscripts
postrotate
/usr/local/bin/log_rot_ast
endscript
}

/usr/local/bin/log_rot_ast contains:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload' >/dev/null 2>&1

Gavin,


I really do appreciate your one-liner. But is there any more insight
into
this? I know I have to use Logrotate, but I have no idea how I can
actually
get it done.

I'm going to try and figure it out right now, but for the benefit of the
list and archives, it just might be good if solutions could be posted
here
too.

Thanks,
Mark.

PS: Remember, many people get their answers from mailing list archives.
So
we'd rather get them solved than getting the same question on the list 3
months later. Smile

I actually use it on a couple other boxes and I agree with you completely.
Just didn't want to use it on this box which I'm trying to keep as secure as
possible.

I'm a fan of Webmin too. Smile

In my installations, I have total control via Webmin and can create
and alter existing log file rotations via an easy to follow GUI.
YMMV. Maybe you have a dev box you can try it on? Installation is
simple. I recommend putting it on a non-standard port and not using
the default username admin. You could also install it but don't have
it run as a service.

Webmin is nice for a good many things nix, I am a fan. Just secure it
as much as possible.

Thanks,

While maybe a little too non-cli for some folks, I like to use
Webmin's GUI for setting up log rotation. Nice, quick, easy, hard to
get it wrong....

logrotate can be used to rotate any files you want. So just add
a logrotate definition to /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk:

/path/to/my/cdr-custom/Master.csv {
daily
rotate 7
compress
missingok
notifempty
}
Gr??e,

Don't. A 'mv' is enough. This is also the case for any of the CDR csv files,
not just Master.csv.

If you use the same logrotate file for both the logs and Master.csv, it
should have a 'logger reload' line, as you must re-open the logs.

E.g: /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk

/var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/messages /var/log/asterisk/full /var/log/asterisk/*_log /var/log/asterisk/cdr-*/Master.csv {
missingok
sharedscripts
postrotate
asterisk -rx "logger rotate" >/dev/null 2>&1
endscript
}
But if you have different configuration for the CSV file (e.g: rotate it
by size as well, or daily, unlike the system default, which is weekly),
you can put it in a separate logrotate file, that will not rotate logs.

E.g:

/var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/messages /var/log/asterisk/full /var/log/asterisk/*_log {
missingok
sharedscripts
postrotate
asterisk -rx "logger rotate" >/dev/null 2>&1
endscript
}

/var/log/asterisk/cdr-*/Master.csv {
daily
missingok
sharedscripts
}
