after he setup action queues it was only doing one thread per action queue, even after the maxthreads for the actionqueue was set to 64.

Action or main q threads?

He had set the max threads to 64 and was still only seeing one thread
working.

In a few of the later messages in the thread, his actionqueue config
parameters are up near the top of the message.

But one very important thing: by default a queue has max 1 worker. This
needs to be increased if multiple ones are desired.  I guess that was the
main point missing. If you create an async action queue, you also get one
more thread. Probably that's why it looks how it looks.  I don't know the
parameters out of my head.

 clarifying some questions that have come up in discussions around
rulesets, thread, and queues

When you tie a ruleset to a specific input, does that still use the same
main queue? or will the logs from that input go to a different main queue
(so the workers working on that queue will have no locking contention
with
workers working on logs from a different input), or do they get put on a
single main queue.

how do output threads and rulesets interact?

from what was reported, it looks as if everything goes to one queue, and
only if you set action queues per-ruleset will you end up with
per-ruleset
threads (in this case, actually per-actionqueue threads)

Is omfile able to make use of multiple threads if you have a single
action
(in this case, using dynafiles)


note, the documentation for omfile there is a bad entry
http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/****omfile.html<http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/**omfile.html>
<http://www.**rsyslog.com/doc/omfile.html<http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/omfile.html>


* DynaFileCacheSize (not mandatory, default will be used)
Defines a template to be used for the output.


I think this is the wrong description and it would be good to say what
the
default is.
