As we wanted to make sure we solved the problem, and for all the logs,
we inserted a new cron that ran logrotate with the -f parameter on a
specific day of the year:
0 0 11 5 * /usr/sbin/logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.conf
I'm not sure we used midnight as the time, and the day was different
for every machine. Thinking about it now, maybe it should be done
twice a year.
0 0 11 5,11 * /usr/sbin/logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.conf
Anyway, you get the general idea.
