> Guys, this is regarding the missing documentation of the max index limit to the DefaultRolloverStrategy. By default, this is 7 based on the implementation. Unfortunately, this is not documented. 
> Because of the lack of the documentation, one might assume it to be an unbounded limit (or rather high?).  This might lead to data-loss, which happened in my case. Please document it.
