Is there a way rsyslog can prefix the host name how you mentioned, I
was reading about the DynaFile, woudl I need to create a template and
append below text to it?

/var/log/%HOSTNAME%/%programname%.log

if you are already using Dynafile you can do:

/var/log/%hostname%/%$myhostname%-%programename%.log

this way the two servers writing to disk will write to different files.

yes.

note that if you have two programs writing to the same file on NFS, you will
have headaches, so do something like prefixing the filename with the
hostname of the server writing them.

Oh ok, and just set up the same rsyslog configuration on both servers
right?

you would setup rsyslog on both machines, then install something like
pacemaker or keepalived and assign the cluster a third IP address that
pacemaker or keepalived would move from one machine to the other when one
fails.

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to ask your input in what would be the best way to have
redundancy/failover for rsyslog,

I have two available servers that rsyslog can be installed into them.
I would like to be able to have both servers listening to messages
coming in from either a single ip or a pool of ips.

I would like them to be configured in an active/passive configuration
where if one server malfunctions the second server will take over and
keep logging.

Does rsyslog have the capability to do fail over?

Robert
