Log rotation for docker or limit log size?

I don't believe there is log rotation enabled in unraid's implementation of docker. There doesn't seem to be a limit on log size either. I kept running out of space in my docker image and finally realized that a few of the containers were filling up the image with their logs. One container had a log that was 2.8GB (couchpotato) The temporary solution was to reinstall the container and it reset the files in /var/lib/docker/containers and got rid of the large logs. It freed up a ton of s

Since 6.2+ supports the log options, you'd want to add this to the extra parameters: --log-opt max-size=50m --log-opt max-file=1 Specifying the max size without the max-file won't actually do anything because all its going to do is archive the old logs and recreate another. Specifying max-file will delete any old logs. I've added this to the Docker FAQ as a number of containers are guilty about extreme logging.
