Hello,

I'm trying to find a way to send a signal to pmlogger to log certain metrics immediately. For instance if we have a set of metrics that get logged every 10 minutes but we notice something "interesting" going on with the machine, I'd like to say: "Log those metrics right now" in some way. The only way I could think of was to duplicate these as "once" metrics in the conf file and then send pmlogger a SIGHUP. Is there a better way that wont start a new log file?

Thanks

Martins
