you can put a queue on a ruleset and then all your actions in that ruleset.

Subject: [rsyslog] Shared action queues

Hi,

I've run into issues with local logging being blocked because a different
action (omfwd) is blocked. Eventually the main queue filled up and we
started dropping messages. I'd prefer it if omfwd actions didn't affect
local logging and it seems like adding action queues for omfwd is a good
solution for this.

However, I'm worried about the overhead of adding a queue for each action
(we have a lot). I know I can tune the queue parameters but I'm wondering
if all the omfwd actions can just share one queue? Looking at the
documentation, I think I can group them into a ruleset and make a ruleset
queue but I was wondering if there is a better solution?

We're currently on rsyslog version 8.2102.0.

Best wishes,
Raymond
