You've got to give us some more information on how you truncate the file, what kind of link you use, and what and how another application might write into that file, because I can't yet reproduce that behaviour
Hi,
Following are the steps which we follow :-
1) a log file is generated through the redirection of Jboss' run.sh
2)the above log file abc.log is then linked via :-
3) Every night a copy of the log file in ROOT is made and the original one is truncated :-
After step 3, a new binary line is found as the first line of the truncated file
So a few points :-
1) the log file is being written by JBoss
2) linking is not via "-s"

bos_getlog
BOS_GETLOG(8) AFS Command Reference BOS_GETLOG(8)NAME
bos_getlog - Prints a server process's log file
SYNOPSIS
bos getlog -server <machine name> -file <log file to examine>
[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]
bos getl -s <machine name> -f <log file to examine>
[-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The bos getlog command displays on the standard output stream the specified log file from the machine named by the -server argument. The
BOS Server fetches the log file from the /var/log/openafs directory unless an alternate pathname is provided as part of the -file argument.
CAUTIONS
Log files can grow quite large, especially for the database server processes. To keep them to a manageable size, periodically either use
the UNIX rm command to truncate each log file, or use the bos restart command to restart each process.
It can take up to five minutes after the file is removed or process restarted for the space occupied by a log file to become available.
OPTIONS -server <machine name>
Indicates the server machine from which to retrieve the log file. Identify the machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-
qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see bos(8).
-file <log file to examine>
Names the log file to display. If a filename only is provided, the BOS Server fetches the log file from the /var/log/openafs directory;
the standard values are:
AuthLog
The Authentication Server (kaserver) log file.
BackupLog
The Backup Server (buserver) log file.
BosLog
The BOS Server (bosserver) log file.
FileLog
The File Server (fileserver) log file.
SalvageLog
The Salvager (salvager) log file.
VLLog
The Volume Location (VL) Server (vlserver) log file.
VolserLog
The Volume Server (volserver) log file.
If a pathname and filename are provided, the log file is retrieved from the indicated directory. Partial pathnames are interpreted
relative to the /var/log/openafs directory.
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see
bos(8).
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The bos command interpreter presents the ticket
to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see
bos(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
OUTPUT
The output is preceded by the line
Fetching log file '<filename>'...
The remainder of the output depends on the particular log file.
EXAMPLES
The following example displays the FileLog file from the machine "fs3.abc.com":
% bos getlog -server fs3.abc.com -file FileLog
Fetching log file 'FileLog'...
Sun Nov 8 04:00:34 1998 File server starting

Mon Nov 9 21:45:06 1998 CB: RCallBack (zero fid probe in host.c)
failed for host 28cf37c0.22811
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by the -server argument, or must be logged onto a
server machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is included.
When a server is in restricted mode, bos getlog can only return the contents of the salvager's log.
