What is the best practice to avoid this case
Example,



filebeat 5098 5128 root 3r REG 253,1 31035908096 657022 /var/log/aaa/aaa.access.log.1 (deleted)


There is a logrotate to mv aaa.access.log file while processed by filebeat. nano and tail can be stucking a file but i am focusing on filebeat app.
What is the best practice to solve this permanently ?
Especially, filebeat app.

    Since filebeat is long-running, you will likely need the copytruncate option offered by logrotate.

  • @Haxiel i have 166 ansible scripts. Adding copytruncate to each file is not good idea. I know it works. But do you have other way to avoid that pls ?

    I'm not quite sure what you mean. The QA you've linked shows how to solve this manually by truncating the file. Since you're already using logrotate, copytruncate will do this automatically. What's missing here?
