Error Notification

I have set up error notification to mail me on file system full.

I fill the file system (only small) by: find /usr | backup -ivqf
/fs/backup.file

Lo and behold an error appears in the error log, error notification picks it
up, and a mail appears in my Exchange account.

I then rm /fs/backup.file... re run the backup.....

No error logged therefore no error notification in Exchange.

However if I umount and mount /fs, and re run the backup all is fine!


Does anyone know of a way to always get errors logged without the need to
remount the filesystem ?? ( It might not always be possible/feasible to do!)
