I have rsyslog starting sec with lines like: action(type="omprog" name="sec-heartbeat" binary="/usr/bin/sec --conf=/etc/sec/missing-logs --intevents --intcontexts --dump=/tmp/dumpfile.missing-logs --debug=5 --log=/var/log/sec-missing-logs --input -" template="manual" hup.signal="USR2")
I'm running into a problem where sec is 'lost' by rsyslog. Rsyslog starts a new copy, but the instance of sec continues to run (and causes alerts based on the lack of new input) the log at debug level 5 shows things like: Wed Jul 15 11:14:01 2015: SIGUSR2 received: closing outputs and restarting logging Wed Jul 15 11:14:01 2015: Creating SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:14:01 2015: Creating SEC internal event 'SEC_LOGROTATE' Wed Jul 15 11:14:01 2015: Deleting SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:14:27 2015: SEC (Simple Event Correlator) 2.7.5 Wed Jul 15 11:14:27 2015: Reading configuration from /etc/sec/missing-logs Wed Jul 15 11:14:27 2015: Opening input file - Wed Jul 15 11:14:27 2015: Creating SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:14:27 2015: Creating SEC internal event 'SEC_STARTUP' Wed Jul 15 11:14:27 2015: Deleting SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:14:35 2015: SEC (Simple Event Correlator) 2.7.5 Wed Jul 15 11:14:35 2015: Reading configuration from /etc/sec/missing-logs Wed Jul 15 11:14:35 2015: Opening input file - Wed Jul 15 11:14:35 2015: Creating SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:14:35 2015: Creating SEC internal event 'SEC_STARTUP' Wed Jul 15 11:14:35 2015: Deleting SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:15:01 2015: SIGUSR2 received: closing outputs and restarting logging Wed Jul 15 11:15:01 2015: Creating SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:15:01 2015: Creating SEC internal event 'SEC_LOGROTATE' Wed Jul 15 11:15:01 2015: Deleting SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:16:02 2015: SIGUSR2 received: closing outputs and restarting logging Wed Jul 15 11:16:02 2015: Creating SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' Wed Jul 15 11:16:02 2015: Creating SEC internal event 'SEC_LOGROTATE' Wed Jul 15 11:16:02 2015: Deleting SEC internal context 'SEC_INTERNAL_EVENT' what can I do to try and get more info from sec about what it's seeing happen? This was happening every few weeks, but today it's happening much more frequently (twice in a minute in the sample logs above) David Lang ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't Limit Your Business.
