Comment 3 for bug 1677005

I think maas.log is on the order of dpkg.log's verboseness, but I agree if we're talking about regiond.log or rackd.log. We tend to log important information in maas.log, so we should err on the side of not deleting old maas.log files.

What I observed is that maas.log is rotated daily and deleted after 1 week, as follows:

# ls -la /var/log/maas/maas*
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 42656 Mar 28 19:10 /var/log/maas/maas.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 114338 Mar 28 06:20 /var/log/maas/maas.log.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 2946 Mar 27 06:25 /var/log/maas/maas.log.2.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 2884 Mar 26 06:14 /var/log/maas/maas.log.3.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 5526 Mar 25 06:14 /var/log/maas/maas.log.4.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 3000 Mar 24 06:18 /var/log/maas/maas.log.5.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 3350 Mar 23 06:19 /var/log/maas/maas.log.6.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 syslog syslog 3085 Mar 22 06:19 /var/log/maas/maas.log.7.gz

This MAAS was installed longer than one week ago and upgraded to 2.2 on March 18th.
