I like to have my logs rotate on a weekly. I am having a problem with zmd-messages.log it rotates daily in the form of zmd-messages.log.2006-05-20. I can't find the entry for this log. In the logrotate.d directory there is an entry for zmd-backend.log that I now have setup to rotate weekly but nothing for zmd-messages.log. Looked in the /etc/zmd/zmd.conf file nothing. I don't know where else to look.

All logs rotate daily. If you want weekly rotation move /etc/cron.daily/logrotate to /etc/cron.weekly The fact that zmdmessages.log _appears_ to rotate daily is determined by the rate it grows. If other logs would grow as fast they would be archived daily as well. See /etc/logrotate.d/zmd-backend to understand better. Please reply on suse-linux-e@suse.com if you need to ask more questions.
