I do not think they fix it. we found a solution though.
The partition for /var/log is 20GB.
The problem show itself, as the Kernel file in /var/log was expanding out of proportions. i went from a couple of MB,to 18GB in a couple of weeks, and the rotation did now work.
so what we did was:
root@localhost CentOS7 /var/log # vi /etc/logrotate.d/kernel
/var/log/kernel {
su root root
copytruncate
missingok
create 0600 root root
maxsize 1M
rotate 4
compress
}
/var/log/kernel {
su root root
copytruncate
missingok
create 0600 root root
"/etc/logrotate.d/kernel" 10L, 133C written
and now it works like a smotth operator.
NB when the /var/log reach max capacity, it shut downs services
