tail utility doesn't work as expected
by sluge from LinuxQuestions.org on (#594QX)
Hello,
I start monitoring is process alive using tail utility by
tail -Fn0 --pid=11111 /opt/mylogfile.log
Process with PID 11111 was restarted and now this process has other PID 22222 but I still see that tail continue monitoring for process with PID 11111. Could it be a tail issue? Icheck /proc and failed to find /proc/11111. May be tail just hangs?
