Well i guess you would be right if just those messages would be of any 
standard. But it seems like vmware with esxi doesn't keep standards high 
enough.
I don't understand how facility and level are provided but not on the very 
beginning of a message.

This is the message field of a message received by an Raw Text UDP Input. 
The same message on an Syslog UDP Input has level 6 and facility4. I had 
just a quick look at the source code but couldn't find the correct lines 
where you extract those infos.

Well, i understand that is no high priority - well more none of that - but 
i bugs me bad and i want to solve this s*** somehow. My current workaround 
works but with alot ... work ... and theres more to come on each change.
