I ran a shell command the other day which produced more output than expected. It was writing to a file on a filesystem with very little available space and could have filled the filesystem. The command took a long time to run so rather than rerunning it with a different output location, I would like to have been able to switch the output destination while it was running. Is this possible?
I know that renaming the file wouldn't work because the system uses the inode number rather than the name, what options do I have?
