The mode on rsyslog files is set to 0640 by default in Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 16.04 by default. CentOS 7 sets the mode to 0600 by default. The Ansible tasks will adjust the rsyslog configuration so that any new log files will have the mode set to 0600.

This will take effect the next time that log files are rotated with logrotate (configured in V-38624). Deployers can also make this change manually with chmod.
