Re: [rsyslog] drop messages without timestamp

2017-04-24 Thread mostolog--- via rsyslog
Perhaps I didn't understood properly and what you really need is 
startmsg.regex="WHATEVER" ?


rsyslog will consider the message is part of the previous if it doesn't 
start with WHATEVER.

I’m trying to work out a problem with the logs from our ESX servers.
It seems for one of the logs, the message can overrun some maximum
and it dumps the remaining part of the message on to the next line.
This is a problem because these message fragments break the
organization set via dynafile and of course they don’t parse.

The only thing I can really match on is that the fragment doesn’t
lead with a timestamp.

I’m wondering if there’s any easy way to drop this message. In
writing this out, I’m not sure basing it on timestamp would be the
best idea as some messages may not immediately start with one. I’m
not sure I can use a variable like timestamp as a condition though.
