How to delete logs automatically after a certain time and restart the process that fills up the log file?
Server is Ubuntu 16.04. I have a process running with nohup that logs into a local file. This file gets big enough to consume 100% disk space. To resolve this I have to kill the process first and then remove the log file. Then i restart the process. How can i resolve this with a script or some other tool?
