Hi,

Somebody recently told me there may be some issues with rsyslog and DA
queues (disk assisted queues).... or maybe there were in the past, circa
rsyslog 8.2...

Does anyone know if disk-based queues should be considered mature and
reliable or still a little flakey?

They are reliable, in that they work as designed. Depending on what you are trying to do with them and what assumptions you are making about how they work, you may be surprised.

By default, logs written to disk queues are allowed to be buffered by the OS, so in a crash you can still end up loosing logs and/or corrupting the last log.

What is it that you are concerned about?
