2021-11-09atop: T3774: Atop log file rotation fixzsdc
The systemd unit for atop service is changed, so the log file name and location will be always the same. It also adds the logrotate configuration to conditionally rotate a log file. Hardcoded values: - maximum log file size: 10 MB - maximum count of files: 10 These values can be easily changed within the `/etc/logrotate.d/vyos-atop`, no additional configuration is required. Rotation will be done hourly, if necessary, according to `/etc/cron.hourly/vyos-logrotate-hourly`. This change has two benefits: - rotation strategy control can be done via logrotate, and can be exposed to CLI now; - the total size of all logs is now controlled more aggressively, so the chance to get a situation when atop logs took all the space on a drive is significantly lower. Also, if this will be necessary, rotation may be done even each minute what reduces risks related to logs size even more.
