Tmpfs, right? I just use mount -t tmpfs <mountpoint> /var/log -o remount -o size=<newsize> tmpfs + remount lets you resize the volume "live" - without stopping any processes. Just be careful you don't resize to a size greater than physical ram. :-) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
