Forgive me if this is a simple question, but, can syslog-ng handle file rotation? I see there are options for the fifo sizes but no tuning for log rotation or file sizes. If this isnt currently available, can syslog-ng follow inode changes if the file it's writing to is changed/deleted?
syslog-ng does not handle log rotation on its own, use a program like logrotate to perform this task, and send a SIGHUP to syslog-ng to reopen destination files (so inode changes will be taken into account) -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1
