Hi, I located the problem. After I restarted rsyslog on the central syslog servers ( referred to in the config as *.* @@(o)sys1:514 and *.* @@(o)sys2:514 ) the logging on the local servers started again. Does a remote delivery failure/block cause the clients not to write messages to the local logs?
