Hi,

We upgraded the OS on our central receiver yesterday from Ubuntu 16.04 (4.4 
kernel) to 18.04 (4.15 kernel).

We are using the upstream PPA, so running 8.2006.0 on receivers and endpoints.

When we started getting reports from our Nagios instance that the rsyslog 
forward queues endpoints were beginning to fill we checked our receiver 
(sawmill1) and saw 94 open TCP connections with 40 of them in CLOSE_WAIT from 
our Nagios server, most of them I suspect from the TCP port connection test 
performed every 5 minutes.

Log samples from the receiver system (which are related to port probes from our 
Nagios instance):

Log samples from the Nagios instance:

2020-08-19T11:19:53.444953-05:00 nagios rsyslogd: 
omrelp[lincoln.lib.auburn.edu:2514]: error 'error waiting on required session 
state, session broken', object  'conn to srvr lincoln.lib.auburn.edu:2514' -

peer', object  'conn to srvr lincoln.lib.auburn.edu:2514' - action may not work 
as intended [v8.2006.0 try https://www.rsyslog.com/e/2353 ]

Is  there a setting I can apply to rsyslog to help resolve this?

Is this a known bug?

We didn't have the issue with v8.2006.0 on our receiver when it was running 
Ubuntu 16.04 (the prior OS release), even though it made the same complaints 
about the TCP port probes from Nagios.

Thanks in advance.
