you could change the source to write a second persistent file.

I don't know, how the dbwriter is invoked. Maybe a wrapper could do which will 
call the real dbwriter after you first append the new lines to another file.

A less reliable solution in your situation could be syslog-ng. Since version 
3.1 it can follow a file by inode or name (i.e. even rotating ones) and send 
the new lines to somewhere else via the syslog protocol. I use this to collect 
the logfiles from IBM's Storage Manager at a central place from certain 
machines, and it's also working on Windows this way. But I'm not sure, whether 
it misses a lines here and there. As I'm mostly interested whether the backup 
was successful, it doesn't matter in my case.
