Just by creating the empty directory /var/log/journal/, it is used and you get persistent journal.
Yes, I am aware of that, but surely someone who did that would also be aware, so no need to ask here.
I think there is an rpm that creates the directory, too.
/var/log/journal is owned by the systemd-logger package on each and every one of my Tumbleweed and Leap machines
The Leap machine was a fresh install of Leap 42.1 All but one of the Tumbleweed machines was a fresh install, the remaining one being an upgrade since god knows when
All of them have an /etc/systemd/journal.conf that is fully commented out
All of them do not have volatile logs
Yes, that's correct. With the default setting of "storage=auto", and an rpm that creates the /var/log/journal/, you get a persistent journal. Neat. It may be that some people do not have the package systemd-logger installed, though. Thus the differences. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
