Hello @long

Yes log rotation is supported. PSMDB provides the same functionality as MongoDB so you can see documentation at [Rotate Log Files](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/rotate-log-files/)

PSMDB versions based on v5.0 allow to rotate audit log files separately from server logs (see docs at above mentioned link).
