## ## === When you're using remote logging, enable on-disk queues === ## === in rsyslog.d/remote.conf. === ## ## Note, that when the MYSQL, PGSQL, GSSAPI, GnuTLS or SNMP modules ## (provided in separate rsyslog-module-* packages) are enabled, the ## configuration can't be used on a system with /usr on a remote ## filesystem, except on newer systems where initrd mounts /usr. ## [The modules are linked against libraries installed bellow of ## /usr thus also installed in /usr/lib*/rsyslog because of this.] ## # ######### Enable On-Disk queues for remote logging ########## # # An on-disk queue is created for this action.
