The problem is that messages never seem to ever leave a suspended state except to resume on the action they were suspended on. I'm currently running on 8.4.2 and hoping to get some insight. I don't believe this is a configuration issue, but perhaps someone else can see something I missed. The section of the configuration relating to the actions is posted in the issue link.?
That sounds like the intended behavior. If a message fails to be delivered to a destination, delivery is suspended until that destination starts working again. After the message is delivered to that destination, rsyslog will deliver it to other destinations after that in the config file.
If you configure rsyslog to not suspend, but instead permanently fail to delier to that destination, then you can invoke the failover to deliver to another destination only if delivery to the first failed.
What are you thinking should happen?
