Hi, I am using Rsyslog v 8.14.0 with an external module written in Python and integrated via omprog. I want rsyslog to spawn only single instance of external module and therefore use forcesingleinstance configuration. The behavior I see is that
- rsyslog spawns a process for client.py, then this process becomes inactive and rsyslog spawns another process. And the old one keeps lingering. - I do not want a lingering inactive process as it is consuming extra memory. How can I get rid of inactive lingering process. Thank you for your help. local1.* action(type="omprog" binary="/home/ubuntu/client.py" queue.filename="elmo" queue.type="linkedlist" forcesingleinstance="on") e.g. top output PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 5605 syslog 20 0 78.3m 25.6m 4.5m S 0.0 0.3 0:15.66 /usr/bin/python /home/ubuntu/client.py 5600 syslog 20 0 75.4m 22.7m 4.5m S 0.0 0.3 0:10.34 /usr/bin/python /home/ubuntu/client.py ~Manoj _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
