I am having trouble coming up with a v8 rsyslog.conf file from a v5 one as I am trying to create a new syslog server. In looking at all the documentation, it's all written in the old format so there's not a lot of examples with the new style. Questions:Since order matters, is there a specific structure that the file should be in? Are global variables like $WorkDirectory and $IncludeConfig supposed to go within a ruleset? Where does the timezone function get called (like a global or within ruleset(), input())?
How do you call $RulesetCreateMainQueue within a RainerScript ruleset? Where goes the timezone function get called? Do action functions need to be withing a ruleset? In doing a google search, it seems like people have 2 main rulesets: local and remote. local is where the old default unix rules are and it's set as the default ruleset while remote is bound to the input function. So does that mean that this won't work?ruleset ( name="q_default" queue.maxdiskspace="192m" queue.type="LinkedList" # use asynchronous processing queue.saveonshutdown="on" # save in-memory data if rsyslog shuts down action.resumeretrycount="-1" #retry indefinitely on failure ) *.info action(type="omfwd" target="tigger" queue.filename="qf_tigger" ruleset="q_default") & action(type="omfwd" target="pooh" queue.filename="qf_pooh" ruleset="q_default") & action(type="omfwd" target="piglet" queue.filename="qf_piglet" ruleset="q_default") & action(type="omfwd" target="eyore" queue.filename="qf_eyore" ruleset="q_default") -Nate _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
