Hi all, I am once again at "last message...", hopefully for the last time. I am moving this to the input part (together with more advanced rate limiting). This will improve performance and reduce complexity in the output part (the added complexity in input is far less).
Currently, rsyslog supports the traditional "last message repeated n times" and a more informative message. Traditional is: Oct 12 18:22:10 rger-virtual-machine rger: test Oct 12 18:22:17 rger-virtual-machine rger: last message repeated 3 times Oct 12 18:22:17 rger-virtual-machine rger: testx The (better) more informative message is: Oct 12 18:22:10 rger-virtual-machine rger: test Oct 12 18:22:17 rger-virtual-machine rger: message repeated 3 times: [ test] Oct 12 18:22:17 rger-virtual-machine rger: testx Note that the traditional message's semantic is very often wrong, as the message directly in front of the "last mes..." is actually not the repeated message. I tend to remove the traditional message and the config option associated with it. Does anybody see any problems? If I don't hear back of any problems, I'll drop the traditional format.
