Hi,
Has this been understood now? I'm asking because OSG (and probably epel) is
shipping xrootd with -k fifo and logrotate on and this leads to logs being lost
(it seems like xrootd still does rotation at midnight and then logrotate kicks
in at 4am and moves the log away ... so this 4-hour interval is all that is left
of the logs for each day).
