Hello everyone,
I'm running into a strange problem with some new RHEL 6 servers I've
built. I can go for days without anything appearing to get logged (to
any file/remote server), but then when I restart rsyslog via the
provided initscripts, logs magically appear! Obviously there's some
sort of buffering happening, but where/how? If anyone is familiar with
this, and could point me to the relevant spot in the docs, I'd be grateful.
We're running a pretty bare-bones config (comments removed):
$ModLoad imuxsock.so
$ModLoad imklog.so
$ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages
authpriv.* /var/log/secure
mail.* -/var/log/maillog
cron.* /var/log/cron
*.emerg *
uucp,news.crit /var/log/spooler
local7.* /var/log/boot.log
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.*;cron.none @@loghost.unet.brandeis.edu
The initscript calls rsyslog as:
/sbin/rsyslogd -i /var/run/syslogd.pid -c5
I'm running things in debug mode right now, and will post the debug logs
once I read through them a bit.
John
