Thanks, I think this is reasonable however I think we may need to make
the above a function and then call it from other places in the tests in
that file.

test_syslog_restart should check it did restart using the above

test_syslog_startup_config does a second restart which we should also
check?

Out of interest were you able to see error codes being returned in
status in your tests?

Cheers,

Richard
