running setup-linux.sh intermittently hangs

[cjsGSB]

Building rhel 7.4 VM's and forwarding their logs to our NagiosLS. The logs being forwarded are audit.logs and secure.logs as well as the default /
/var/log/messages using the setup-linux.sh script. What would cause the the script to hang up ? Restarting the rsyslog service does not seem to work, we need to reboot the VM to get it back. Like I mentioned it happens intermittently but enough to be an issue

This is puzzling, the script is not that complicated.

Do you get any output when it hangs?

When looking at it that is correct. I will get some outputs today

Looks like the problem is a time sync issue. Once ntp is configured correctly between the forwarding VM and logserver, the script worked consistantly

Ok good, glad to hear it is resolved!
