On RHEL 6.2 64-bit, I have Rsyslog 7.4.1 (actually, the issue has existed for earlier versions too).
After logrotation, the logrotate script HUPs the rsyslogd pid but the disk space doesn't free up until I restart rsyslog. After a few hours "df" reports a full filesystem whereas "ls" shows much smaller file sizes. In between this confusion, rsyslog seems to stop receiving log streams. Is there a way for rsyslog to switch file handles when it is HUP-ed? TIA. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
