The issue is then that you can not analyze old problems. The default for syslog is one year of logs.
I want a reliable and good replacement for syslog, not a half cooked thing.
We need to look at definitions. It does not get rid of any logs, I still have all logs going back to my 2015 install on another arch with SystemMaxUse=320M, e.g. 02:01 phoinix:~> sudo journalctl --disk-usage Archived and active journals take up 360.0M in the file system. Here all my logs from initial install (second boot after network install) are there: 02:07 phoinix:~> jcnl -b2 -n100 -- Logs begin at Sat 2015-08-08 17:17:21 CDT, end at Wed 2017-04-12 02:07:52 CDT. -- Aug 29 13:20:29 phoinix systemd[1]: Failed to propagate agent release message: Transport endpoint is not connected Aug 29 13:20:29 phoinix systemd[1]: Failed to propagate agent release message: Transport endpoint is not connected Aug 29 13:20:29 phoinix systemd[1]: Failed to propagate agent release message: Transport endpoint is not connected Aug 29 13:20:29 phoinix systemd[1]: Failed to propagate agent release message: Transport endpoint is not connected <snip> I will have to research just what the limit is for SystemMaxUse -- David C.
