Yesterday night, we were having a long nightly running process (several hours) on one of the ZEO node. (Around 500 Mo logs on this one). The reopen occurred while the Zope server was still working. The reopen went ok but it restarted the Zope server at the same time which of course stopped the actual running operation of ours.
Did someone experienced this ?
Any feedbacks appreciated. For maximum reliability I tend to forego the built-in log reopening in favor of using the logrotate utility in "copytruncate" mode. This will not require any log file reopening, logrotate will simply make a copy of the existing log and then truncate the logfile that continues to be in use to zero length. Zope or the ZEO server won't have to know or care at all at that point.
Thank you Jens for the quick reply.
I think I'm going to send these instructions, to be on the safe side, to the administrators taking care of the cluster.
Do you have any idea about the "zopectl logreopen" misbehavior as someone who's avoiding using it explicitly ;) ?
I think the shift to the oh-so-much-better Python logging module is not complete. See this bit in ZEO/runzeo.py: def handle_sigusr2(self): # TODO: this used to reinitialize zLOG. How do I achieve # the same effect with Python's logging package? # Should we restart as with SIGHUP? log("received SIGUSR2, but it was not handled!", \ level=logging.WARNING) svn blames Tim for the comment, and Gintautas for the actual logging call change.
