Have central loghost configured with disk assisted queue like so:

$WorkDirectory /var/log/rsyslog 
$ActionQueueType LinkedList
$ActionQueueFileName failqueue-loghost2
$ActionResumeRetryCount -1
$ActionQueueSaveOnShutdown on

# remote logging of everything
*.*       @@loghost1:5140

Central loghost still running syslog-ng.  Had a problem with it that caused it 
to fail on multiple occasions over the past couple days.  Resolved the problem 
and logs are now flowing to it, but the files that were created on the clients 
during this period are not going away, nor are the back logs flowing to the 
central loghost.  For example:

# syslog client
#/var/log/syslog
-rw------- 1 root root 1049189 Mar 16 01:13 failqueue-loghost2.00000002
-rw------- 1 root root 1048848 Mar 14 13:25 failqueue-loghost2.00000003
-rw------- 1 root root 1048648 Mar 14 17:20 failqueue-loghost2.00000004

-rw------- 1 root root    1653 Mar 16 01:13 failqueue-loghost2.qi
