rsyslog 8.3.3 (v8-devel) released

We have just released 8.3.3 of the v8-devel branch.

This provides the capability to automatically close files (including dynafiles) after some inactivity timeout. It also makes some of the more exotic modules build under v8, which now supports the same set of output modules as v7 did.

As always, feedback is appreciated.

Changelog for 8.3.3 (v8-devel)

Version 8.3.3 [v8-devel] 2014-05-26
  • unify input object naming
    imudp now supports “name” paramter, as other inputs do. “inputname” has been deprecated, but can still be used. Same applies to “appendport” subparamter”. Thanks to “Nick Syslog” for the suggestion.
  • made the missing (contributed) modules build under v8 [import from 8.2.2]
    Modules:

    • * mmrfc5424addhmac
    •   * omrabbitmq
    •   * omgssapi
    •   * omhdfs
    •   * omzmq3
  • added a cleanup process (janitor); permits to close omfile files after a timeout
  • make omgssapi build under v8.3 [import vom v8.2]
    note that we could do this to the stable, because there is NO regression chance at all: only omgssapi was changed, and this module did NOT work previously.
  • removed obsolete –disable-fsstnd configure option
    Thanks to Thomas D. for alerting us.
