Let's purge those

Gerrit runs on ytterbium and Apache2 has a logrotate rule:

$ cat /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 
/var/log/apache2/*.log {
        daily
        missingok
        rotate 30
        compress
        delaycompress
        notifempty
        create 640 root adm
        sharedscripts
        postrotate
                /etc/init.d/apache2 reload > /dev/null
        endscript
        prerotate
                if [ -d /etc/logrotate.d/httpd-prerotate ]; then \
                        run-parts /etc/logrotate.d/httpd-prerotate; \
                fi; \
        endscript
}

Gerrit also has some logs under /var/lib/gerrit2/review_site/logs which I believe are logrotated by Gerrit itself over a week.

I guess whatever access.log.*.gz old files we have is a leftover after the logrotate rule got adjusted to 30 days and could be safely deleted on ytterbium.

I can not access /var/log/apache2 to confirm, we are not in the adm system group.

Has this been adjusted so that it deletes the logs after 30 days?

Based on what Antione said above, yes, all new logs are deleted after 30 days.

@Dzahn / @chasemp (Daniel is assigned, but Chase found it...): can you verify that the timestamps suggest that all new logs are rotated after 30 days and the files you (Chase) found must have just been left over when we switched to the 30 day rotation? And if so, please just delete them! Thanks!
