I expect that you might want something similar to this (e.g. within an im_file
definition):
Exec $raw_event = hostname() + " " + $raw_event;
But know that you can obviously do a whole lot of other stuff, e.g. this is
part of a larger glob of stuff (so there are start-up, and run-time variable
references here, whose values were established before this statement), and its
purpose is to build an older style syslog packet, with some host and file
identification information shimmed in, just before the original log file
payload, all in order to get it ready to be fed to an upstream syslog
collection server (i.e. via om_udp or om_tcp output):
Exec $raw_event = "<13>" + strftime(now(), "%b %e %T") + " " +
hostname() + \
"-" + %FLATSUFX% + " AgentDevice=FileForwarder\tAgentLogFile=\x22" + \
$file.name + "\x22\tPayload=" + $raw_event;
Hope that helps.

Subject: [nxlog-ce-users] Basic question
I suspect this another of those "can't see the forest because of the trees"
questions... I have seen (in the documentation somewhere) an example that shows
the logs being written out as hostname+log but I can for the life of me find it
now. Would someone kindly give me a page number or an example?
Thanks in advance.
