Basic Pleskian
Go to Websites and Domains.
On the particular Web site, click on Logs
At the Upper Right is a pull down called All Logs
Click on it, and pick Manage Log Files
On the next page pick Log Rotation
Pick Log Rotation by size, and make the number 2048KB ........that should be plenty big enough for Fail2Ban,
since these are text files and you can put a whole LOTTA info in a text file w/o it being too big
I don't know what the maximum number of log files means.....
Also notice this little gem: 'Note that your custom logs are not rotated.'
My take on this stuff.
1. Managing Log file size is WAY too hidden.........they really buried it as far as they could, and that's saying a lot, coming from a programmer, and a web user for over 20 years.
2. I don't know if 'Compress Log Files' has any consequences as far as server efficiency.
3. And I have no idea what 'rotate' means, OR the number of log files.
4. plesk needs a LOT of work to make it user intuitive and usable.......A LOT of work
5. Entirely TOO MANY software packages and website applications are created in a VACUUM!
What that means is the programmers get ZERO input from the people that are actually gonna use the garbage they create, no matter HOW 'pretty' it is.....and how much it impresses upper management/whotfever, so they can justify their pay and their fees for their 'program'.
