Notice that opal-prd.log file is owned by root user while opal-prd.log.1 is owned by syslog.
That means someone has manually created that log file?
I deleted opal-prd.log file and restart opal-prd daemon.
rm /var/log/opal-prd.log
systemctl restart opal-prd

Looks like logrorate stuff is creating new file with root user. Below change should fix this.

Hi all,
thanks Vasant for the investigation. The fix looks good,
I'm just going to check that on Debian as well.
I'll let you know asap,

Then check if the OPAL prd generated logs are captured in /var/log/ opal-prd. log file.
