I believe that all outputs are opened when the first message to that destination is sent. the connection gets re-established if it times out, or if you send rsyslog a HUP, I would expect that it will resolve the address at that time with no internal caching. The DNS caching that rsyslog does is intended to reduce the number of DNS lookups for inbound messages (especially important for UDP) David Lang > Thanks, > Max > > ____________________________ > > The London Metal Exchange is a company incorporated in England and Wales with > registered number 02128666, VAT registered number GB 918 4582 96 and having > its registered office at 56 Leadenhall Street, London EC3A 2DX. > > LME Clear Limited is a company incorporated in England and Wales with > registered number 07611628, VAT registered number GB 918 4582 96 and having > its registered office at 56 Leadenhall Street, London EC3A 2DX. > > The London Metal Exchange is a recognised investment exchange, supervised by > the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). > > This email may have been sent on behalf of The London Metal Exchange, LME > Clear Limited, or jointly on behalf of both. > > Please note that this message is intended for the named recipient(s) only. > Its contents may be confidential or subject to professional privilege.
