| Jun 14, 2017 at 15:45 | comment | added | Holistic IT | I see. In this case, I could simply make my processes write their relevant output directly to the file, or just pipe the output to the file, I guess. My concern is, does the output just pile up in the file? What do I do later when gigabytes of output have piled up in the file? Do I need to periodically log on (or set up a cron job or something) to empty out the file? | |
