One more reason to keep /var/log in separate lvm volume as we had on
old boxes before migration. I would set it up again but for some
reason I feel like people are opposed to do that for unknown reasons.
However on real production systems in my work the servers have
zillions of separate lvm volumes for everything possible so that these
subsystems are so isolated from each other that it is nearly
impossible to affect everyone by doing things like this.
