Is that just when troubleshooting, or do you have a mechanism setup to check for non-receipt?
I've used Simple Event Correlator to set a timeout for each host as the vmstat message arrives, and as long as they keep arriving, the timeout never fires. If they stop arriving, the timeout fires and generates an alert.

I think I've used the vmstat command before, but don't know a lot about it. I'll look more into it.

One thing I like to do is to make sure all systems send a message on a frequent basis, then look for the message to not arrive. I like to do vmstat -t vmstat 60 or similar as it produces a very dense data set that's useful for after-the-fact investigation of problems David Lang _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list https://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
