> Looking in hadoop-daemon.sh we see the start command redirects logs to the 
> log file by creating a new file. It does not append to the log.
> nohup nice -n $HADOOP_NICENESS "$HADOOP_HOME"/bin/hadoop --config 
> $HADOOP_CONF_DIR $command "$@" > "$log" 2>&1 < /dev/null &
> I believe output should be appended to the log file so logrotate copytruncate 
> works. Currently a large log file cannot be truncated without restarting the 
> running service, which causes issues in production environments.
> The improved line would be exactly the same, except use >> to open the log 
> file in append mode.
> nohup nice -n $HADOOP_NICENESS "$HADOOP_HOME"/bin/hadoop --config 
> $HADOOP_CONF_DIR $command "$@" >> "$log" 2>&1 < /dev/null &
