My experience has been that logrotate is already installed and
configured by default during a server install. And so it may be on your
machine. But this is not a certainty.
There are quite a few conditions relevant to your particular machine
(e.g., "df -H") and many configuration options. Since your are
obviously brand new to logrotate, you should do some reading and
investigation on your own. Start off with "man logrotate" and googling
for "logrotate centos redhat". There might also be info for you on the
centos wiki.
If/When you have more specific questions, then it would be beneficial to
post them here on this list.
