Rsyslog conf naming standards

Post by stecino »

Hi All,

Wanted to know if I can have conf files that are not necessarily named the way nagios log server logsource create script creates them.
As long as I have FILE_ID, FILE_PATH, FILE_TAG declared, is there any dependency on the naming the conf file?

Thanks in advance
