I have the following setup that I want to use (on RH 6 and 7)to stop the system from slowing and/or hitting performance issues if: 1. Remote TCP logs server is down or not present for a extended time 2. The disk queue happens to fill up and can no longer write to disk for some reason ( $ActionQueueTimeoutEnqueue 0)
$WorkDirectory /var/log $ActionQueueFileName srv1 $ActionQueueMaxDiskSpace 1g $ActionQueueTimeoutEnqueue 0 $ActionQueueSaveOnShutdown on $ActionResumeRetryCount -1 *.* @@192.168.1.113:6.14 A few questions. Looking at various examples, it seems that some specify the following as well: $ActionQueueSize 1000 # Default? #When the disk queue comes into play $ActionQueueLowWaterMark 2000 $ActionQueueHighWaterMark 8000 # discard messages $ActionQueueDiscardMark 9750 # Default I've looked at the explanation on queues at th rsyslog site (http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/concepts/queues.html) and I'm inclined I do not need to specify these directives, but I was wondering how these items are handled if they are not explicitly specified? Are there default values assigned? _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
