Hello,
First, Thank You for wonderful utility. Am using nxlog-ce-2.7.1191 on
Debian. The nxlog binary is @ /usr/bin/nxlog.
I've following 2 queries - please provide your view
points/clarifications. Much appreciated.
Q1. While using pm_buffer, when 'Type' is 'Disk', which partition will
get used ?. /var ? or Are there any configurable param using which I can
direct nxlog
to use a specific partition ?.
<Processor buffer>
Module pm_buffer
# 1Mb buffer
MaxSize 1024
Type Disk
# warn at 512k
WarnLimit 512
</Processor>
Q2. For below usage of im_file module, what is the impact of
"SavePos TRUE" & "ReadFromLast FALSE" ?.
<Input myfile2>
Module im_file
File "/home/mike/Downloads/test1.log"
SavePos TRUE
ReadFromLast FALSE
Exec $TYPE = "testlog-2";
</Input>
I had opted for "SavePos TRUE", so that in case nxlog restarts, it
remembers its last read position. Also, opted for 'ReadFromLast FALSE'
because whenever use it for first time, I wanted nxlog to read entire
log and not just start from last line. Thereafter wards, as and when new
line gets
written to log file, nxlog will ship them by default. And, as
"SavePos TRUE" saves last-read position, it'll ensure double
protection during nxlog restarts.
Is above interpretations correct ?. Please advise.
Thanks,
Shanks
