Inviting ideas. Has anyone tried to quantify log-loss (#number of lines lost per day per sender etc) for a log-store?
Let us consider the following setup: - An environment has several application nodes. Each app node hands-over its logs to local Rsyslog daemon(let us call it Ra, Rsyslog-application). - The environment has one or more Rsyslog receiver nodes (let us call it Rr, Rsyslog-receiver). - Rr(s) write received logs to a log-store. The problem statement is: Quantify log-loss(defined as messages that are successfully handed over to Ra, but can't be found in log-store) in log-events lost per day per host. Log-events may be lost because of any reason (in the pipe, or after being written to log-store). It doesn't matter which of the intermediate systems lost logs, as long as loss is bounded (by any empirical figure, say less than 0.1%). -- Regards, Janmejay http://codehunk.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
