    Description

      Currently if you check the server docs, it does not mention at all that Cloud Manager / Ops Manager are capable of doing log rotation and that they will be doing log rotation automatically for instances deployed by Automation.

      It is likely that users attempt to setup custom log rotation, while it's already managed by MMS (note that because of SERVER-16821 this may endanger stability of the deployment).

      We should mention in the server docs (https://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/rotate-log-files/) the capabilities of Cloud Manager / Ops Manager in regards to log rotation.

      We should also make this feature more visible in the Cloud Manager's / Ops Manger's documentation.
