NAME
rotatelogs - rotate Apache logs without having to kill the server
SYNOPSIS
rotatelogs logfile rotationtime [offset]
DESCRIPTION
rotatelogs is a simple program for use in conjunction with Apache's
piped logfile feature which can be used like this:
TransferLog "| rotatelogs /path/to/logs/access_log 86400"
This creates the files /path/to/logs/access_log.nnnn where nnnn is the system
time at which the log nominally starts (this time will always be a multiple of
the rotation time, so you can synchronize cron scripts with it). At the end
of each rotation time (here after 24 hours) a new log is started.
OPTIONS
logfile
The path plus basename of the logfile. If logfile includes any
% characters, it is treated as a format string for strftime(3).
Otherwise, the suffix .nnnn is automatically added and is the
time at which the logfile was created.
rotationtime
The rotation time in seconds.
offset The number of minutes offset from UTC. If omitted, zero is
assumed and UTC is used. For example, to use local time in the
zone UTC -5 hours, specify a value of -300 for this argument.
