Delayed log files?

When viewing logs, for example

Code: Select all

cat /var/log/zm/zmc_m2.log

it can take more than 1/2 hour before the entries catch up to the current time. Log entries in the web UI don't have that delay. And monitors 1, 2, and 3 show different log file delays.

What gives?

Typically when writing to a file, contents get cached. When we turn on debug, we do an explicit flush after every line.
