I have a server that send a continuous stream of data log to another server Linux.
I have a filesystem with 100 Gb. I edited the file /etc/rsyslog.conf with the string "if $fromhost-ip startswith 'ip source' then . After that i edited the logrotate with the following parametres: - Notifempty, maxsize 1024M, yearly, rotate 8, compress and i linked to this a crontab every 5 minutes. This flow is about 1Gb every hour, zipped is 60Mb. Now I have another filesystem of 500Gb, where i have to collect the same stream for 6 months. So: - how can i send the same log to different paths? i must edit the /etc/rsyslog.conf or i have to redirect the log from the destination folder to the new folder? - if i have 28Gb/day and i have to keep it for 6 months, which is the best practise to store it? (how many rotate, what time to start the crontab,etc) thx _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
