I’m looking into getting some better metrics around our logging environment. We have about 300 servers which are sending logs remotely to a load balanced VIP with 4 rsyslog destination servers behind it. I’m looking to get some more information from those 4 destination servers about how many logs they are processing and possibly some information about what logs, maybe how often filters are getting it. Ideally it would be awesome to get these metrics into our current cacti system.I did some research but didn’t really find a clear way to set something like this up. I was wondering if it’s possible and if so, if anyone has an example of how I might set this up?
well, to get the data out of rsyslog, you probably want to configure the impstats module to dump the data.
You should then be able to use normal methods to get the data into cacti (look into the options for non-snmp data)
