corrupted checkpoint

Hi I set a cron job script to perform ausearch every 5 minutes on a central log server. The logs from various hosts are received together in the same file The logs are rotated on a daily basis Everything ran fine for several days, then suddently I got : Corrupted checkpoint file. Inode match, but newer complete event (1582684501.003:48035) found before loaded checkpoint 1582684346.999:48034 The events are : checkpoint audit.log.3: node=xxxxxxxx type=USER_END msg=audit(1582684346.999:48034): pid=15666 uid=0 auid=0 newer event audit.log.2: node= xxxxxxxx type=USER_ACCT msg=audit(1582684501.003:48035): pid=16000 I guess the problem is due to the log rotation since the two messages are coming from the same host. I have a few questions When it happens how can I restart the process ? Is there a way to restart ausearch from the newer event ? How could I extract the events between the checkpoint and the newer event ? The checkpoint file contains : dev=0xFD03 inode=1048581 output=xxxxxxxx 1582770601.342:380885 0x456 What is this : 0x456 ? How can I find the value for a given event ? Philippe Worldline and equensWorldline are a registered trademarks and trading names owned by Worldline Group.
