Hi David,

The logs are from different sources.
1. If the source did not provide millisecond information, shouldn't rsyslog
put in "000000" there to keep the format consistent?

No, I don't believe that rsyslog adds trailing zeros to the timestamp, so even with milliseconds, the length can vary

2. Are both the time-stamps same in terms of compliance with any time
format standards? Or, are they two different standards?

I believe that the standard allows for both formats.

 Hi,

In the rsyslog config, I use:
$ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_FileFormat

I noticed that some logs are written with a timestamp that does not
contain
millisecond information. Example:
2013-09-12T18:34:00+00:00

Other events are written with millisecond information on the same instance
of rsyslog:
2013-08-30T10:09:52.819709+00:**00

What could be causing this difference?


are the logs with the different timestamps originating from different
servers? if so, it's probably a matter of the other servers not providing
the millisecond information.

If the logs are all from the same machine, are the different logs from
different applications?
