We're looking into a problem with VOIP phone freezing and have several hundred
phones doing debug level logging to a Solaris box. Analysis shows
between 1000 and 1500 messages a second being logged.
However after
a few hours we see a backwards drift in timestamps - as if the syslog server
is falling behind. I also see that syslog is resolving IP
addresses and writing FQDN to the log.
The man pages only reference
to buffering is that if syslog is sent a HUP it will attempt to flush all
pending messages. There is no reference about controlling the DNS
lookup.
Questions:
what is available to control or monitor the
queue and queue size?
how can I turn off the DNS lookup? (though I
realize the results will be cached)
