Description
In my view the most basic vdemo behavior is:
- start component
- if the component does not crash within x seconds, consider the start successful
The current logrotation interferes with that.
The reason seems to be a sleep 10 here: source:vdemo_base.sh@b87d0dee#L204
(and no, we do NOT have time here... ;) )
rotatelogs from apache2-utils would provide a better tool in my view. It could just be used to replace tee in the logging case.
But maybe I do not get the full picture here.
I might change the logrotate feature accordingly in case there are no objections. Otherwise a branch will be created.
