Title:
Limiting queue disk space does not work, upgrade needed
Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04
# apt-cache policy rsyslog
rsyslog:
Installed: 7.4.4-1ubuntu2.3
Candidate: 7.4.4-1ubuntu2.3
Version table:
[...]
When rsyslog is run with a config to save/cache log to disk, e.g when the
host that
it is forwarding log to is not responding, it fails to respect the
maxdiskspace parameter. This is a known bug and 7.4.7 of v7-stable has
been released to fix this, see
http://www.rsyslog.com/changelog-for-7-4-7-v7-stable/
Config for testing:
global(
workDirectory="/tmp"
)
module(load="imudp")
module(load="omrelp")
input(type="imudp"
port="514"
)
action(type="omrelp"
target="localhost"
port="2514"
action.resumeRetryCount="-1"
queue.saveonshutdown="on"
queue.type="LinkedList"
queue.filename="omrelp"
queue.maxfilesize="100M"
queue.maxdiskspace="1M"
queue.checkpointinterval="100"
queue.highwatermark="10"
)
Then just log more than 1MB of messages to UDP to see that it doesn't
stop at 1MB but just continues forever.
Please upgrade the package to 7.4.7.
