 # --- Step 9: Configure OVN log rotation ---
-# OVN has built-in rotation that renames foo.log → foo.log.log. A previous
-# logrotate config used a *.log glob that caught those .log.log files too,
-# creating .log.log.1 files that accumulated to 27GB. Fix: use explicit
-# filenames so logrotate only touches the primary logs, not OVN's backups.
+# The ovn-common package provides /etc/logrotate.d/ovn-common which handles
