vm log rotation

What is the default size for a log rotation on a VM?

Can this be changed? How would i verify the current value on a specific VM ?

My goal is to rotate logs at 10MB and keep a maximum of 10 logs. (100MB Total))

Thanks,

It's vmx.log.rotateSize in VM settings.

log.keepOld = "10"

log.throttleThreshold may be also useful
