| sixwheeledbeast | When your looking to free up disk space A usual place to grab a few Gb would be /var/log.... | 00:47 |
|---|---|---|
| * sixwheeledbeast stares at /var/log/journal thinking your a 4Gb blob and I assume I need to work out what tool makes you not that size. | 00:48 | |
| DocScrutinizer05 | sixwheeledbeast: blame systemd | 00:50 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Was greping for *.log.*.gz Really that hard that they made some ctl tool for "managing" this stuff. :sigh: | 00:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | yep | 00:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | complete epic fail | 00:54 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | my opensuse still defaults to rsyslog | 00:55 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I imagine the fancy tool does all sorts of things and can filter if you know how, but all i want is to locate some old files and press delete... | 00:55 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | somehow you can disable that systemd-journald junk | 00:55 |
| sixwheeledbeast | probably, as with probably many people I don't want it but it's just as much of a hassle to fight it | 00:57 |
| sixwheeledbeast | journalctl --rotate && journalctl --vacuum-time=90d did the trick, completely logical way to do things obviously. | 01:04 |
