Since some time i've noticed that the syslog files, that used to
start at exactly the same time every day, now start 5 minutes later.
The output of the /var/adm/syslog.dated directory looks like:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 2 17:49 02-Apr-17:49
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 3 17:49 03-Apr-17:49
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 4 17:49 04-Apr-17:49
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 5 17:54 05-Apr-17:54
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 6 17:59 06-Apr-17:59
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 7 18:04 07-Apr-18:04
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 8 18:09 08-Apr-18:09
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 9 18:14 09-Apr-18:14
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 10 18:14 10-Apr-18:14
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 11 18:14 11-Apr-18:14
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 12 18:14 12-Apr-18:14
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 13 18:19 13-Apr-18:19
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 14 18:24 14-Apr-18:24
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 15 18:29 15-Apr-18:29
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 16 18:29 16-Apr-18:29
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 17 18:29 17-Apr-18:29
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 18 18:29 18-Apr-18:29
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 19 18:34 19-Apr-18:34
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 20 18:34 20-Apr-18:34
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 21 18:39 21-Apr-18:39
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 22 18:44 22-Apr-18:44
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 8192 Apr 23 18:44 23-Apr-18:44
As you can see the logdirectory at 02-april was created at 17:49.
The last logfile, dated 23-april is created at 18:44.
Does anyone know what is causing this ?
