To rotate the logs of the process that uses odd names, and doesn't
rotate it's own log when you kill -HUP it I found this pretty:
for CheckFile in `find /local/sites/gen3/logs ! -name \*gz -size +7484c
-print`
do
NewFile="$CheckFile.$Date.rotated"
# echo Rotating $CheckFile to $NewFile.
$CP $CheckFile $NewFile
$CAT /dev/null > $CheckFile
$GZIP $NewFile
done
Moving the origina isn't going to work instead of a copy, the open
filehandle follows it. This traverses a 4gig filesystem very quickly
and looks like it's going to work perfectly.
As per getting the programmers to change, it ain't gonna happen here.
Remember, without the programmers, the system is just hardware and
uselss, according to them. As per management back to get the programmers
to change or do some dirty work, that's less likely. Anyone hiring?
