Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • I see that my Ansible Tower logfiles are not rotating as should be expected.

    Example:

    -rw-r--r--. 1 awx  awx       315 Mar 25 10:14 tower.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 awx  awx       145 Mar 25 10:14 tower.log.1
-rw-r--r--. 1 awx  awx       315 Mar 25 09:14 tower.log.2
-rw-r--r--. 1 awx  awx       145 Mar 25 09:14 tower.log.3
-rw-r--r--. 1 awx  awx        89 Mar 25 08:53 tower.log.4
-rw-r--r--. 1 awx  awx       158 Mar 25 08:14 tower.log.5
