Howdy.
While going to the logs to investigate a problem, I find they are corrupt. "journalctl --list-boots" shows only some ancient boots ending in December 2014, 21 in total, while there are actually more:
journalctl --list-boots | wc -l 21 journalctl -F _BOOT_ID | wc -l 316
"journalctl --verify" shows a bunch of problems so I thought I would just clear the journals up to the last month or so, but the expected "--vacuum-time=" option apparently doesn't work in openSuSe 13.2. Is there another preferred way to clear the corrupt part of the logs?
I think the journal, when it detects corruption, closes that particular file down and creates a new one but don't quote me on it.
Thanks.
