Working further on my templates for dynamic logfile naming, I'd like to name our log archives after the time in UTC (which is unfortunately not the current system time at the moment) instead of their local time zone. Is there a good way to do this that will not cause undue overhead? Our application is pretty high volume, and I'm worried that doing a lot of scripting to figure out the times will not be a good thing for the processing rate. Can I use /etc/default to tell rsyslog what time zone to use or something similar?
Just to clarify what I'm looking for, during 0900-0915 of 4 Sept 2013 PDT, I'd like files to go in: /logs/events/2013_09/04/event-2013-09-04-16-00.gz (because 0900 PDT is 1600 GMT) If this isn't possible it's not the end of the world for me, but it would be convenient -- our biggest concern right now is what happens during the end of DST in November. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
