If you don't specify anything, the default is used.
code trumps documentation, documentation trumps comments on the mailing list :-)

Just trying to understand, this page
https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/rainerscript/queue_parameters.html says for
example:
queue.highwatermark number .... default 90% of queue size.
The queue .size default is 1000. So, if you don't specify queue.highwatermark
does the default kick in? If not, how do you get a queue.highwatermark default
of 90%?

you really should switch to using the action() style syntax for anything

like this. This old format of multiple lines that affect the next action
is very
confusing to understand.
The current documentation should list the default values (the watermark
functionality is disabled by default)

Subject: [rsyslog] Queue Directives Help
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
