Old logs in /opt/zimbra/zmstats

[mtk]

Hi,

using Zimbra for quite some years, the installation seems to have stored several years of daily logs in /opt/zimbra/zmstats in folders like

Code: Select all

drwxr-x--- 2 zimbra zimbra     4096 Jan  2  2015 2015-01-01
drwxr-x--- 2 zimbra zimbra     4096 Jan  3  2015 2015-01-02

drwxr-x--- 2 zimbra zimbra     4096 Jan  6  2015 2015-01-05


Containing each:

Questions:

- Can those folders simply be deleted?
- Is there any flag for log rotation or purging, that I am missing?

Thanks for your help in advance!

Take a look at zmstat-cleanup which is a bash script:

Code: Select all

# su - zimbra
% /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmstat-cleanup --help

Usage: /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmstat-cleanup [-k <keep count>] [-h] [-l] [-p]

    -h|--help    Help/usage information
    -k|--keep    Number of archived copies of zmstat data to retain.
    -l|--list    Generate a listing of log dates archived.
    -p|--purge   Purge ALL archived zmstats data.


FYI... purge isn't doing anything sophisticated... finding a list directories and looping to delete each directory with /bin/rm -rf ... just historical data to look at

Probably should provide a usage for others in the future.... Here is an example of one method:

Code: Select all

su - zimbra
ls

Add this to your zimbra's crontab if you wanted to retain a month or year, etc.

Thank you! That worked.
