JEP 158: Unified JVM Logging

[Yasumasa Suenaga]

Hi all,

I contributed JDK-7090324: gclog rotation via external tool to be synchronized with
logrotated tool on Linux.

I think JEP 158 is in progress.
However, this JEP does not contain log rotation via external tool in the spec.
I want to rotate logs via jcmd in this JEP.

I've updated a patch for it:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ysuenaga/jvmlogging-logrotate/

This patch provides new option "rotate" in VM.log command.
If this change can be accepted, I will file it to JBS and send RFR.


Thanks,

Yasumasa
