Assuming that regular ldm logging is working it should not log anywhere
else.
If you are seeing the data in your queue, but nothing new on disk (no
changes to df -k) then I would question if pqact is running.
pqact in verbose mode should be loggin each item that goes through your
queue -- even if it is ignoring it.
Another thing to check is to see is pqact is actually running and not
crashing. If you do a ps (or run top) can you see it?
