Log Rotation using advanced.config

[Naseer Pasha R]

Dear Team,

RabbitMQ version : 3.9.13
Erlang version : 24.2.1

We are using the command rabbitmqctl.bat rotate_logs to rotate the large data log files from the past two years.
However rabbitmqctl.bat rotate_logs command has been deprecated and does nothing.

I have referred https://www.rabbitmq.com/logging.html#log-rotation online But this helps to configure in rabbitmq.conf.
However I need to configure the advanced.config for automatic log rotation and log archiving based on the log size. i.e. Rotate the RabbitMQ log if the log reaches specific size and archive the old log files.

Request you to provide the configuration changes for advanced.config.
Please do the needful and let me know if there are any queries.

Hello,

Please see the documentation:

https://www.rabbitmq.com/logging.html#log-rotation

You can use BOTH rabbitmq.conf and advanced.config at the same time.

You can refer to this recent discussion concerning log rotation on Windows - https://groups.google.com/g/rabbitmq-users/c/dbvLMFnGAvE

Please note that you are using an old version of RabbitMQ that will be unsupported soon.

Thanks,

Luke

Hi Luke and Team,

Thanks for the response and this is helpful.
I have two queries to clarify and please let me know on this.
1. Is there any command alternative/substitute to rabbitmqctl.bat rotate_logs(deprecated) to rotate logs.
2. I have installed the latest RabbitMQ version 3.11.0 and I see advanced.config in the data directory but not rabbitmq.conf. Please let me know any reason for this and clarify.
