You could use something like $SIG{USR2} = sub { kill 'USR1', $$; # ... now trigger your other logging system ... }; Log::Log4perl->init_and_watch("l4p.conf", 'USR1'); which uses a user-defined signal handler listening to USR2. You can add whatever other logic you need to it. When triggered, it also forwards the signal to Log4perl's signal handler, which listens to USR1.
