[maker-devel] master_datastore_index.log file shrinks.

[Michael Nuhn]

Hello!

I'm trying to keep track of the progress of maker (version 2.27) while 
it is running by looking at the master_datastore_index.log file every 
once in a while.

Sometimes the number of lines in it decreases. Just now it went down 
from more than two hundred to thirty seven.

When I start more instances of maker, the number of lines in it 
increases when they start. But sometimes I check and the number of lines 
has greatly reduced since the last time.

I'm afraid that the newer instances of maker are deleting the file and 
starting it from scratch instead of adding their progress to it.

Is this a file locking issue I should be worried about?

Cheers,
Michael.
