BigFix won’t touch files that are open for writing, which is the right thing to do when it comes to SHA1 evaluation.
This is actually a bit annoying. I’d actually like the option to accept the responsibility of odd results and be able to read a file that is open for writing in some cases, particularly when it comes to Log files that are always open for writing.
