>             Project: Log4j 2

> I am using log4j 2.0-rc1, StructuredDataMessage and EventLogger to perform dynamic logging.
> Attached log4j2.xml configuration meant to:
> - rotate log files on hourly basis OR after file reaches 64 MB (whatever comes first)
> - archive logs that does not satisfy the file pattern
> Whenever JVM is restarted, log4j abandons "old" files un-archived:
> -rw-r--r--. 1 root root   317625 Feb 24 20:16 2014022419-sim-mdmlocal.mobidia.com.log
> -rw-r--r--. 1 root root  3333648 Feb 24 20:20 2014022420-activity-mdmlocal.mobidia.com.log
> Listing above shows that file 2014022419-sim-mdmlocal.mobidia.com.log was last touched by the system at 20:16, and should have been archived to .log.gz after restart, which occurred soon after
