[syslog-ng] Using tail option

[James B Horwath]

All:

This question refers to syslog-ng 2.0.10 running on AIX. If I use a global 
syslog-ng client file and define 2 text files that do not exist on every 
system.

What happens when syslog-ng is run on a system that does not contain the 
files?  Does it report errors, have performance problems?

Example:

source s_tail1  { file("/var/apache/log/access_log" follow_freq(1) 
flags(no-parse)); };
source s_tail2  { file("/var/apache/log/error_log" follow_freq(1) 
flags(no-parse)); };


Please advise,
Jim
