Task history size

[Mikus]

Is it possible to configure the size of Proxmox VE task logs, stored in /var/log/pve/task? I wish to have 1-year long history.
Thanks!

You could try adding a new log rotation setting to /etc/logrotate.d/ for the logs [1]. You could also consider regularly backing up your log files so that they're accessible.

I was looking for the same thing, but I didn't find it.

I have created a script that changes the number of 20,000 records (about 1 year of task history) using cron. My post here https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/task-log-retention.133758/post-736123
