OK, guys. CentOS 7.1. I've got an OpenStack process that wigged out and was logging like crazy to /var/log/messages. So I killed it. FORTY FIVE MINUTES AGO. And still, log lines that must've been buffered... somewhere, are flying into the messages file. Gigabytes of them, e.g.,
Jan 6 20:42:56 sca1-drstack01 neutron-server[27127]: Exception RuntimeError: 'maxiException mum RuntimeErrorr: e'cmuaxrismuim roencu rdsieonp tdehp the xecxceeeeddede wdhi lew cahlillien gc aal lPiyntgh oan Poybtjheocnt 'o in bject'<bound method GreenSocket.__del__ of <eventlet.greenio.GreenSocket object at 0x5889910>> ignored Now, 27127 is dead, gone, not in the process table. Not a zombie, not nothing. I restarted the syslog... and the logging stopped for a few seconds, and then restarted. How in blazes do I find what's buffering the logs, and how do I flush it?! I've run into this once before and did *something*, but damned if I can remember what. All ears; my disk space is finite. (I've already truncated the file twice.)
