Hello list, I run a process which writes data through multilog. Each 5 minutes, I need to process the collected data and start with a new "current" sending an ALARM signal to the multilog process. This will certainly work: command ./main/current svc -a ./ But what if data is written to ./main/current while "command" is running? What happens to data written to multilog if I stop the multilog process using the -d and -u option?: svc -d ./ command ./main/current svc -u ./ svc -a ./ R. -- ___________________________________________________________________ It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak aloud and remove all doubt. +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Richard Lucassen, Utrecht | | Public key and email address: | | http://www.lucassen.org/mail-pubkey.html | +------------------------------------------------------------------+
