Hi, I am trying to get reliable failover logging to 2 remote hosts using this config:
*.* @@<remote1>:514 $ActionExecOnlyWhenPreviousIsSuspended on & @@<remote2>:514 $ActionExecOnlyWhenPreviousIsSuspended off This works fine if I stop syslog on the remote1 host, the rsyslog client host fails over and fails back with no problems. But if I use iptables to drop TCP/514 on remote1 server then on the client host the TCP connection goes to CLOSE_WAIT and then to LAST_ACK & SYN_SENT and finally to just SYN_SENT. It then just stays as SYN_SENT indefinitely and rsyslog does not failover to the second destination: tcp 0 1 <client host>:40416 <remote1>:514 SYN_SENT 3393/rsyslogd I've read Rainer's blog post<http://blog.gerhards.net/2011/03/using-failover-and-asynchornous-actions.html> and I do not have "$ActionQueueType LinkedList" set. Is there some configuration I am missing? I'm using version 5.8.10, I know it's old.
