Like ramlog for systemd (on debian 8 jessie for example).
Usefull for Raspberry for not writing all the time on the SD card. You need it because your SD card don’t want to suffer anymore !
The script log2ram can work on every linux system. So you can use it with your own daemon manager if you don’t have systemd.
Log2Ram is based on transient log for Systemd here : A transient /var/log
git clone https://github.com/azlux/log2ram.git
cd log2ram
chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh
Into the file /etc/log2ram.conf
, there are two variables :
true
if you prefer “rsync” than “cp”. I use the command cp -u
and rsync -X
, I don’t copy the all folder every time for optimization.The default is to write log into the HardDisk every hour. If you think this is too much, you can make the write every day by moving the cron file : sudo mv /etc/cron.hourly/log2ram /etc/cron.daily/log2ram
.
You can now check the mount folder in ram with (You will see lines with log2ram if working)
df -h
mount
The log for log2ram will be write here : /var/log.hdd/log2ram.log
