that two services which log do not

the journal files stored. The options

prefixed with

journal files when stored on a

persistant file system, more

specifically

writable and the directory

<filename>/var/log/journal</filename>

applies. Note that this means that

during early boot and if the

administrator disabled persistant

logging only the latter options apply,

while the former apply if persistant

up. <varname>SystemMaxUse=</varname>

and <varname>RuntimeMaxUse=</varname>

control how much disk space the

maximum. Defaults to 10% of the size

of the respective file
|
|
system. <varname>SystemKeepFree=</varname>
|
|
and
|
|
<varname>RuntimeKeepFree=</varname>

control how much disk space the

other uses if less than the disk space
|

configured in

<varname>SystemMaxUse=</varname> and

system. <varname>SystemMaxFileSize=</varname>
|
|
and
|
|
<varname>RuntimeMaxFileSize=</varname>
|
|
control how large individual journal

files may grow at maximum. This
|
|
influences the granularity in which
|
|
disk space is made available through
|
|
rotation, i.e. deletion of historic

data. Defaults to one eigth of the

|
values configured with

<varname>SystemMaxUse=</varname> and

<varname>RuntimeMaxUse=</varname>, so

|
and
|
|
<varname>RuntimeMinFileSize=</varname>
|
|
control how large individual journal

|
files grow at minimum. Defaults to
|
|
64K. Specify values in bytes or use
|
|
K, M, G, T, P, E as units for the
|
|
specified sizes. Note that size limits
|
|
are enforced synchronously to journal

files as they are extended, and need

no explicit rotation step triggered by
