<p><tt>The answer: it simply works! OpenSIPS will continue writing

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.</tt></p>
