February 4, 201115 yr I checked my unRAID this morning and the only entry in the syslog was this: Feb 4 04:40:01 Beanstalk syslogd 1.4.1: restart. Thinking that a new syslog file was created, I went to flash/logs to see if anything happened and could not find a file for the last few days. The last file was 01/25/2011, which was when a new log file was created when the array was last stopped and server rebooted. So I rebooted, but the saved log file starts from only the above entry. So I am missing log entries since my last reboot on 01/25/2001. The last day I ran a manual move of over 1TB worth of cached data and then a parity check afterward and so there should be a lot of entries, especially from the mover. Both processes ended successfully. Is this normal?
February 4, 201115 yr Is this normal? Yes, this is normal. The log was rotated out, but NOT to the flash drive. The saving of the flash drive is because of the Pwoerdown script you probably have installed. If you would have telneted to the server and done a ls /var/log/ you would have seen that there was another syslog there with a slightly different name.
February 4, 201115 yr Author Thank you. I will try and remember that the next blue moon when I have to check up on the unRAID server.
