Flushing it
or how to get something out of the logs
Well, it turns out the procedure I've been using for a couple years to flush the access_log files on this system weren't exactly complete. Sure, it worked sometimes, but there were a lot of other times when the flush just wouldn't release all the log entries.
The release notes weren't exactly complete, as it turns out. I found this reference in comp.os.vms that solved my problem. Not only do I have to do a httpd -k flush, but prior to that, it helps to run @Apache$Root:[000000]Apache$Setup -- that preps the environment for the flush to, well, flush.
Boy, that explains a lot of weird behavior I've seen since upgrading to 2.x!
