Hello All, Is it possible to use a facility id other than local0-local7? I was using a facility id of 50 in some of the messages , and I had written a selector line in my rsyslog file as well to log messages with facility id of 50 into a seperate file. However, I see that sometimes the messages are being written into all the files(/var/log/messages, boot.log,/var/log/secure etc) instead of the one I specified in the rsyslog.conf. If I restart rsyslog the problem goes away. I am using rsyslog version 4.2.0.
Here is the selector line in my config if $fromhost-ip == '127.0.0.1' and $syslogfacility == '50' and $syslogseverity <= '6' then $log_rotation_50 where $log_rotation_50 is an outchannel which is configured to rotate the file when it reaches the size of 2MB.
