Hey I'm writing a guide to help new users learn best practices for rsyslog and linux system logging. We're collecting suggestions on which topics to cover.
I spoke to Rainer and he suggested we cover multiline events, parsing log files, and tips on what should be logged locally on disk versus sent to out to an aggregator. For system log examples, we'll probably show too many login failures, kernel faults, cron job errors, etc. What kinds of things do you commonly look for in system logs? Things that are tricky to understand? Things you learned the hard way and wish you knew at the beginning?
