However, I am not aware of the specific error that you are seeing. Which vdsm are you using? which kernel? where is the error log shown? What is your exact patch to vdsm/vdsm-logrotate.conf?
on Fedora 16 machine vdsm: vdsm.4.9.0-0.200.g2fc4e63.fc16.x86_64 logrotate: logrotate-3.8.0-3.fc16.x86_64. kernel: "uname -r" shows 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64
I also generated a patch, attached. The errors were reported by sendmail to /var/spool/mail/root
And most interesting: what had its core dumped? why?
I am still not clear about why. But logrotate kept reporting errors without the su directive used even though nothing under /var/log/core.
