NAME

6       rotatebysize.conf - rotate configuration file
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  rotatebysize.conf file has logrotate directives and is included in
10       the ncid logrotate file.  The rotatebyzise.conf, file is used to deter‐
11       mine minimum size needed to rotate the cidcall.log file.
12
13       The rotatebyzise.conf file understands 3 types of lines:
14
15       blank line
16              ignored
17
18       comment line, beginning with '#'
19              ignored
20
21       directive [argument]
22
23       There are two directives but you can add others.
24
25       Defaults:
26              minsize 1
27              #minsize 110000
28              #compress
29
30       If you want the call log to rotate each month, keep the defaults.
31
32       If you want the call log to grow large without rotation, add a # to the
33       biginning of the minsize 1 line and remove  the  #  from  the  #minsize
34       110000 line.
35
36       If you want the file to grow bigger than 110000, change the number, but
37       minsize must be less than 100000000 (LOGMAXIMUM).
38
39       If you want to compress the rotated file, remove the # from  the  #com‐
40       press  line

47       Do not rotate the call file until it is at least 110000 bytes
