Hi, On a system, rsyslog working directory got filled up by messages waiting to be sent. After restarting rsyslog, some messages were sent, but older messages were still waiting. I ran qi_recover.pl with the parameters below (we have two queues) but nothing happened. Is there a way to investigate why the messages are stuck and to ensure they get delivered. New messages are sent normally.
[root@xxxxxx rsyslog]# /home/system/qi_recover.pl -w /var/spool/rsyslog/ -f srvrfwd1 -d 8 > srvrfwd1.qi traversing 82 files, please wait... [root@ xxxxxx rsyslog]# ls -l srvrfwd1*|wc -l 83 [root@ xxxxxx rsyslog]# ls -l srvrfwd1*|wc -l 83 [root@ xxxxxx rsyslog]# /home/system/qi_recover.pl -w /var/spool/rsyslog/ -f srvrfwd2 -d 8 > srvrfwd2.qi traversing 1824 files, please wait... [root@ xxxxxx rsyslog]# ls -l srvrfwd2*|wc -l 1825 If it may be relevant, here is the content of one .qi file : <OPB:1:qqueue:1: +iQueueSize:2:6:103688: +tVars.disk.bytesRead:2:1:0: +tVars.disk.sizeOnDisk:2:8:85812877: >End . <Obj:1:strm:1: +tOperationsMode:2:1:4: +iMaxFiles:2:8:10000000: +bDeleteOnClose:2:1:0: +pszFName:1:8:srvrfwd1: +tOpenMode:2:3:384: +iCurrFNum:2:4:1977: +sType:2:1:1: +iCurrOffs:2:6:774432: >End . <Obj:1:strm:1: +tOperationsMode:2:1:1: +iMaxFiles:2:8:10000000: +bDeleteOnClose:2:1:1: +pszFName:1:8:srvrfwd1: +tOpenMode:2:3:384: +iCurrFNum:2:4:1896: +sType:2:1:1: +iCurrOffs:2:1:0: >End .
