Hi Every one,
What is the decent way of capping the log entries per second that Rsyslog
can receive, store them in the queue ...and after a certain limit is
crossed it will start discarding the received log entries. Is this possible
through queues only?
I am asking as Rsyslog is very fast and can flood other components very
easily...
There is no way to limit the input rate of rsyslog. you can limit the output
rate (set the batch size to one, and then set dequeue delay to limit how fast
logs can be sent)
if you are using a reliable delivery mechanism, then when the queues fill up,
the things delivering logs to rsyslog will wait.
