Log files are not rotated properly on remote pollers

[bmfmancini]

Hey, everyone!

I notice that on 1.2.12 log files are not rotating but only on the remote pollers
the GUI is able to access the log and purge it so all permissions seem to be fine

I know this worked up until 1.2.11

on the main poller, the logs rotate just fine

I went to each remote poller and re-saved the log settings just in case but no difference

The rotation logic itself hasn't changed in a long while but does make me wonder if the log rotation date has been syncrhonised as it's in the settings table.

Yea its weird I did a poller sync same deal Re-save on each poller same The path tab is now set to local settings as well as far as I know so each poller would have that setting local wouldnt it

There are just few settings not replicated, mostly '%path%' related. When you are in 'online' mode, anything you save with the exception of '%path%' for the most part is saved on the main data collector. In offline mode, you can override only until the next full sync though pretty sure.

If log rotation dates are synced we should do that

Well, looking at poller_maintenance.php, it looks like some things should first be bypassed, second, we should force the database to use a local connection when it's running on the remote collector.

I'm okay doing this for the 1.2.x branch. How about you?

I did a little restructuring of the maintenance script and nothing jumped out at me. I'll keep looking.
