Prevent excessive disk consumption by log files
This commit enables management of the main Elasticsearch log files out-of-the-box by the following changes: - compress rolled logs - roll logs every 128 MB - maintain a sliding window of logs - remove the oldest logs maintaining no more than 2 GB of compressed logs on disk Relates #25660

<4> Using a time-based roll policy
|

<3> Roll logs to `/var/log/elasticsearch/production-yyyy-MM-dd-i.log`; logs
|

will be compressed on each roll and `i` will be incremented
|
||||
<4> Use a time-based roll policy
|
||||
<5> Roll logs on a daily basis
|
||||
<6> Align rolls on the day boundary (as opposed to rolling every twenty-four
|
||||
hours)
|
||||
<7> Using a size-based roll policy
|
||||
<8> Roll logs after 256 MB
|
||||
<9> Use a delete action when rolling logs
|
||||
<10> Only delete logs matching a file pattern
|
||||
<11> The pattern is to only delete the main logs
|
||||
<12> Only delete if we have accumulated too many compressed logs
|
||||
<13> The size condition on the compressed logs is 2 GB

||||
|
||||
NOTE: Log4j's configuration parsing gets confused by any extraneous whitespace;
|
||||
if you copy and paste any Log4j settings on this page, or enter any Log4j
|
||||
configuration in general, be sure to trim any leading and trailing whitespace.
|
||||
|
||||
If you append `.gz` or `.zip` to `appender.rolling.filePattern`, then the logs
|
||||
will be compressed as they are rolled.
|
||||
Note than you can replace `.gz` by `.zip` in `appender.rolling.filePattern` to
|
||||
compress the rolled logs using the zip format. If you remove the `.gz`
|
||||
extension then logs will not be compressed as they are rolled.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to retain log files for a specified period of time, you can use a
|
||||
rollover strategy with a delete action.
