Hi Mirza, Graylog Collector currently doesn't support any sort of client-side filtering. You'll have to filter out those messages on the server-side.
You might want to give nxlog a try, which supports client-side filtering and also runs on AIX: https://nxlog.org/products/nxlog-community-edition Cheers, Jochen On Friday, 1 April 2016 21:09:34 UTC+2, Mirza Dedic wrote: > > Hello, > > We are using graylog-collector on AIX 7.1 and it works fine forwarding > logs to a graylog-server host, however we are monitoring some db logs that > are VERY active (about 2000 messages/sec) and there are some log lines we > would like to drop which would reduce the amount of messages we are > forwarding.
