Not directly in Observium, but you can easily pre-filter them in the syslog-ng (or rsyslog) config, by simply not passing in, or blackholing, anything coming in at that level.
For syslog-ng, the relevant section of documentation is at syslog-ng Open Source Edition 3.16 - Administration Guide<https://www.syslog-ng.com/technical-documents/doc/syslog-ng-open-source-edition/3.16/administration-guide/51#TOPIC-956580>. It should be fairly straightforward to follow. The equivalent rsyslog documentation is at RSyslog Documentation - rsyslog<https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/master/configuration/filters.html> and… well, good luck understanding that, I certainly don’t. -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [MERLIN] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) https://www.merlin.mb.ca<https://www.merlin.mb.ca/> [cid:image002.png@01D92A53.29291270]Chat with me on Teams<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=athomp...@merlin.mb.ca> From: Lars Joergensen via observium <observium@lists.observium.org> Sent: January 13, 2023 12:49 PM To: Observium <observ...@observium.org> Cc: Lars Joergensen <dkl...@chr-hansen.com> Subject: [Observium] Ignore priority 7 syslog Hi Some unfortunate soul enabled BGP debugging on a device and then forgot all about it. I’m now trying to delete 76 million records from the syslog database.. Is there a way to ignore syslog messages with priority 7 in the syslog import in Observium? It’ll probably happen again someday.
