<p><tt><span style="font-size:10.0pt">The answer: it simply works! OpenSIPS will continue writing to the
<b>moved </b>file until you <b>rotate</b> it, as the "move" operation simply changes the inode of the file (its reference, hook, pointer, etc.), without touching its contents. This seems to work well on ext filesystems, such as ext4. I have a feeling this
is not the case for all filesystems, though.</span></tt><o:p></o:p></p>
