The global directives are the default. I haven't touched those.

I am however using templates with (including if then statements) the help from 
another rsyslog user yesterday. Is there a preferred directory location when 
downloading the tarball and unloading it?

Hi,

I think a sane approach would be to note down the directives you are using un 
v5 and then comparing them with v7 to see how they differ, in behavior and 
documentation. If your syslog stuff is maintained/supported/used by others, 
probably educate them too. Keep the working v5 config file handy so that you 
can revert to v5, if things don't work as expected with v7 and you need to 
debug.

Particular use case testing is the best method that I can think of.
