Re: capturing log file name from the filter?

Thanks for the replies. jdalrymple, what you're saying makes sense. jolson, I understand that rsyslog would not support this without modification. To answer jolson's question - I would like the name and path of my log files because we man tomcat applications that log separately, in separate sandboxe...

Re: capturing log file name from the filter?

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I thought I could get it from the rsyslog.d/conf file itself. It has the InputFileName (as well as InputFileTage) in the configuration.

capturing log file name from the filter?

Hello

Is there a way in NLS to capture and display the original file name (and path) of the log file being collected? I am using the default rsyslog collector and I was wondering if I have to adjust the input or if I can modify the filter specific to the program.

Thanks.

reducing logstash log level

Hello Is there a way in Nagios Log Server (UI or command-line) that I can reduce the verbosity / log-level? Despite aggressively rotating the logs, I cannot keep up with the growth in /var/log. I have read some of the logstash documentation which indicates that the log verbosity can be increased fro...

Re: log source with "rolling" filename

Hi jolson

Thanks for your reply. I am setting up the symlink option now. I was hoping to avoid this but didn't realize the limitation on rsyslog5 limitation with wildcards.

Take care.

log source with "rolling" filename

Hello My question is regarding creating a logsource for logs with custom names that change over time. For example, new Apache httpd access and error log files are creating every hour and the file names contain the timestamp. I thought passing a wildcard in the logsource would handle the scenario, bu...

Re: Nagios Update Check not matching current version

Scott - thank you for your reply. As mentioned in my post, I realize that the version was correct at the bottom. The question was simply regarding the widget with the update notice. Shouldn't re-starting the NLS cluster re-run the update check?
