Hi George, It's a problem that has to be fixed. The number means that the log gor rotated but a previous rotation already existed so the new file is qualified with a suffix. The problem stems from a change (stupid I must say) in Linux where the scheduled ntp corection occurs at midnight. Many times, the clock runs backwards just as log rotation occurs, so from xrootd's perspective, midnight may occur several times and you get multiple log rotated log files, each with usually a single line.
