NAgioslogserver Rsyslog

[saleemthupsee]

Hello,

I added linux files from nagiosxi to nagioslogserver. Is there a way to remove any unwanted syslog from nagiosxi to be sent to nagioslogserver. I used the script from nagioslogserver to perform the installation.

REgards,

Sounds like you also setup your default syslog messages to route to NLS as well.

Check the contents of /etc/rsyslog.d/

You should see entries for each file that has been configured, as well as the default syslog forwarding:

Code: Select all

[anjohnson@brnxip01 ~]$ ls -l /etc/rsyslog.d/
total 36
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 747 Jan 23  2017 90-nagioslogserver_usr_local_nagios_var_nagios.log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 735 Jan 23  2017 90-nagioslogserver_usr_local_nagios_var_npcd.log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 783 Jan 23  2017 90-nagioslogserver_usr_local_nagios_var_perfdata.log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 787 Jan 23  2017 90-nagioslogserver_usr_local_nagiosxi_var_perfdataproc.log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 749 Jan 25  2017 90-nagioslogserver_var_log_httpd_access_log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 743 Jan 25  2017 90-nagioslogserver_var_log_httpd_error_log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 773 Jan 25  2017 90-nagioslogserver_var_log_httpd_ssl_access_log.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 906 Jan 23  2017 99-nagioslogserver.conf

In my case, the 99-nagioslogserver.conf file is the default. If you don't want that, you can remove that file and restart rsyslog or just comment out the lines in the file and leave it.
