Hi all
I'm considering using rsyslog to transport messages from my application
in reliable way.
This messages will collected on each machine by a local rsyslog
component and delivered
to a remote rsyslog which will serve as a collector.
My main questions now are:
1. Which is the most efficient and reliable way to send messages from
the application to a
local rsyslog deamon running in the same machine. I need this to be in
"real time", so
files are not an option.
2. haven't seen any input module supporting pipes or other form of IPC
besides sockets.
Is this because a design limitation or just because no one has ever had
this requirement
(I find this really hard to believe!)
3. Can I run the rsyslog service "embedded" in my application. That is,
launch it from the
application? The idea is that running it a separate process will force
me to monitor it which
may introduce more complexity in the design.
Thanks in advance
