Package: rsyslog Version: 4.2.0-1 Severity: normal
Hi, I have the same problem on two servers with watchdog daemon and with rsyslog (mark enabled). The watchdog daemon restarts the server because the file "/var/log/messages" has not been changed in time. Below the logs in the file "/var/log/messages" : Aug 2 00:05:06 yuggoth rsyslogd: -- MARK -- Aug 2 00:25:06 yuggoth rsyslogd: -- MARK -- Aug 2 00:45:06 yuggoth rsyslogd: -- MARK -- Aug 2 00:57:01 yuggoth kernel: md: data-check of RAID array md0 Aug 2 00:57:01 yuggoth kernel: md: minimum _guaranteed_ speed: 1000 KB/sec/disk.

Aug 2 01:20:42 yuggoth watchdog[3117]: shutting down the system because of error -6 There is a problem with the writing of marks in the file "/var/log/messages". When writing of marks is enabled, why not write the marks every 20 minutes unconditionally, regardless of other entries in the file "/var/log/messages" ?
