日志輪轉(zhuǎn)特別適用于具有固定文件名的日志文件，比如MySQL的出錯日志、常規(guī)查詢?nèi)罩?、慢查詢?nèi)罩镜取inux系統(tǒng)有一個非常好用的根據(jù)logratate可以實現(xiàn)自動輪轉(zhuǎn)，本文介紹它的原理和用法。
默認情況下，logrotate部署為每天運行的cron job，你可以在目錄/etc/cron.daily里找到名為logrotate的配置文件。那么它是在每天的上面時候運行的呢?打開文件/etc/crontab就知道了，下面是我機器上的情況：

從上面的配置我們可以知道，/etc/cron.daily是在每天凌晨4:02執(zhí)行。也就是說，每天4:02分/etc/cron.daily/logrotate將會自動執(zhí)行，下面是它的內(nèi)容：

從上面我們可以知道，logratate默認的配置文件是/etc/logratate.conf，下面是它的內(nèi)容：

從上面我們可以知道，這個默認的配置文件將讀取目錄/etc/logrotate.d，所以我們只要把自己寫的配置文件放到該目錄下即可。
MySQL本省提供了一個rotate的參考配置文件，在support-files目錄下，文件名為mysql-log-rotate，內(nèi)容如下：

# This logname can be set in /etc/my.cnf
# by setting the variable "err-log"
# in the [safe_mysqld] section as follows:
#
# [safe_mysqld]
# err-log=/opt/mysql/data/mysqld.log
#
# If the root user has a password you have to create a
# /root/.my.cnf configuration file with the following
# content:
#
# [mysqladmin]
# password = <secret>
# user= root
#
# where "<secret>" is the password.

logrotate常見選項:
我們只要根據(jù)自己的需要，修改相應配置即可，下面是一個例子：
1)創(chuàng)建MySQL root密碼文件
vi /root/.my.cnf

chmod 600 /root/.my.cnf
2)把mysql-log-rotate拷貝至/etc/logrotate.d目錄下，修改其內(nèi)容為：

create 600 mysql mysql

rotate 7

# compress
postrotate
# just if mysqld is really running
if test -x /opt/mysql/bin/mysqladmin &&
/opt/mysql/bin/mysqladmin ping &>/dev/null
then

3)執(zhí)行以下命令測試
/usr/sbin/logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/mysql-log-rotate
