I currently have stats turned on for once an hour. It was running fine until I rotated my log file. I currently have all syslog-ng messages with a match(syslog-ng) filter going to /var/adm/messages. I rotated the logs, and HUP'd the syslog-ng process, it indicated in the new messages file that it was restarted and that is the last message from syslog-ng in that file. syslog-ng is logging other facilities to that file, but not stats, or any other syslog-ng messages for that matter, though I don't know if there would have been any others. Am I missing something or is this a bug? If I completely stop and restart syslog-ng everything starts working again. By the way, I rotate the log file by cat'ing it out to another filename, then cat'ing /dev/null to /var/adm/messages.
