I am using a tail –f command with a perl script to interpret data coming back via a passive check. I am then plugging the information into a rrd and making graphs. I know this is probably easier with nagiosgraph or something, but this is a migration from a server running Netsaint 007. I wanted to get things running the way they were and then work to get the other files made up the way we want.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I will try nagiosgraph, but in my last attempts, I was not able to get it working properly. The functionality seems to be better than what I am currently using, but the code for the current solution is more than 3 years old.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I was looking in /etc/logrotate.conf and did not find any log rotation in there. If the script was in here I know I could HUP the process for my script, but I cannot find the process that rotates the logs.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Any help is appreciated.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Scott Yem<o:p></o:p> Research Computing Services<o:p></o:p> Agilent Laboratories<o:p></o:p> </div> </body> </html>
