systemd journalctl Logging
Hi all, I am slowly getting used to some of the changes between Legacy models and OS6 whilst in the process of migrating from an aging Pro6 to a 526X. One of the differences which I noticed f...
Though I agree the OS space needs to be small, I am wondering if they would have been better off to put the logs in their own partition (sized large enough to give a longer lookback).
Were the rsyncs done with backup jobs or via ssh? I haven't seen much impact on log duration due to backup jobs.
Rsyncs were done via Backup jobs but from another NAS. This was the destination device, otherwise they would have been within seperate backup logs I'd assume.
The logs zip includes recent lines of the journal in systemd-journal.log in the logs zip file. If you SSH in you'll see that the journal can grow to several times that size. kernel.log for instance shows recent lines in the journal that are about the kernel so would go further back in time than entries in systemd-journal.log.
If you do encounter a problem it's best to look at the logs ASAP before they are rotated.Hmm... That would lead me to believe that those logs (kernel) are kept seperately somewhere then?
