Comment 27 for bug 832507

IMHO having fixed size rotated logs per VM with max number of files, is a better solution that a ringbuffer. It really doesn't complicate the code that much to have to potentially just read a few lines from a second rotated logfile.

While I agree that conserver is overkill if satisfying the requirements of the get_console_output() API contract is all that's required, I am thinking of the bigger picture, improving the console functionality available for the libvirt Nova driver in general.
