--------------------------------
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 0.3.0BETA)

> Logrotate should archive with dates in filenames
> ------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: METRON-149
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-149
>             Project: Metron
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Jim Jones

> Change all logrotate managed files to use 'dateext'. 
> Currently it changes files like this: metron_pcapservice.log.1
> Where, using dateext makes them: metron_pcapservice.log.20160507
> The disadvantage to this is that they will only archive daily, even if you try to force the rotate (-f), I don't think it will rotate because the date it would rotate to already exists. With the number, if just adds a new number so there's no conflict.
