Hi  All,

I am using file(filename) option  for source of log.   The filename is the log generated by my application. The  scenario is explained below.

                      Writes to                   Reads from

Application --- ---- >filename-----------> syslog-ng

Since the application is continuously writing to file and syslog-ng is reading from the file, is there any chance syslog-ng missing some logs from the file.

I am telling in reader writer context

I referred following link to understand and implement file(filename) option
