In my limited experience I've managed to use both in similar ways,
though by passing '$!' to a remote node I understand[1] that I'm not
including the local variables. Those values are stored within '$.' instead.
For setting values within a configuration for reference within
templates, functions and parameters, (ignoring whether I wish to pass
the values on later) is there a functional difference between the two?
On a related note, though I see that global variables are covered in the
"Log Filtering with Rsyslog" article[2] by David Lang and mentioned as a
v8 official feature, I didn't find many references to it in the current
v8 documentation. Am I overlooking something?
Thanks.
