Monthly log files: Difference between revisions

If you try to look at the current log, and it does not display in the MX admin interface, it might be because you are trying to view it at the same time as the MX engine is writing the next line to it. The exclusive locking stops the admin interface and the engine being able to both access the same file at the same time. So if your logging interval is every ten minutes, don't try to view it within 21 minutesminute either side of the hour and within 2 minutes ofaround every ten minutes thereafter. That still gives you 68 minutes between each 10 minute update for viewing! Of course there is no conflict for past monthly logs.
