The RabbitMQ file grows to fill the /var/log/RabbitMQ volume, preventing services from starting on RSA NetWitness Host

[KranthiKanapala]

Hello,

The /var/log/RabbitMQ file grows to occupy all of the available space in the /var/log/RabbitMQ partition preventing services such as the nwlogcollector (and other services) from starting.

Can anyone please help in this regard.

Regards

Kranthi.

Hi Kranthi Kanapala‌,

The files in /var/log/rabbitmq directory are log files. There must be old zip files which can be moved out of directory to release space consumption.

[KranthiKanapala]

Hi Sravan,

There is no zip files in that directory.

Hi Kranthi Kanapala‌,

Please move existing log files to different directory and create new log files with same permissions and ownership.

Then restart rabbitmq-server service.

Hi Sravan,

Thanks for your reply,

I'm doing the same thing but we can't do it everyday as we have many no.of VLCs, so seeking for the permanent solution.

Hi Kranthi Kanapala‌,

Thanks for details. There should be logrotation policy for these logs. What is your Netwitness version? please share below in sequence.

cat /var/lib/logrotate/logrotate.status

Run logrotate --force /etc/logrotate.d/rabbitmq-server

cat /var/lib/logrotate/logrotate.status

cat /etc/logrotate.d/rabbitmq-server

ls -lh /var/log/rabbitmq/
