title: 'Enable logrotate Timer'

description: |-
    {{{ describe_timer_enable(timer="logrotate") }}}

rationale: |-
    Log files that are not properly rotated run the risk of growing so large
    that they fill up the /var/log partition. Valuable logging information could be lost
    if the /var/log partition becomes full.
