Hi list, We have a case where our central server should send (in tcp, that can't be changed) some logs to an analysis server. In case there are glitches on the analysis server we don't want to impact the central log server. I was thinking of setting up a queue with a discard severity of zero to discard all new messages once the discard watermark is reached. Would that work ? Is there a better way to send the message in TCP and not to bother when the action fails ?
you can set retries to a low value, that will cause rsyslog to throw away the message after trying to deliver it that many times.
