rsyslog 8.1.4 (v8-devel) released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , , , ,

We have just released 8.1.4 of the v8-devel branch.

This release adds the capability to set a variable based on a template. It also adds KEEPALIVE support to the RELP modules (which now require librelp 1.2.2+ for this reason). It also adds some usability enhancements and bug fixes.

Note that this release can be considered a “normal” devel version, with moderate risk associated to it. Experience in the past weeks suggest so. Special thanks to Pavel Levshin for all his work and tests. Still note that there is a considerably higher risk running the devel version than the stable one.

rsyslog 7.5.8 (v7-devel) released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , ,
This is a candidate for the 7.6.0 release. As such, it is probably the last v7-devel release. It contains a select few enhancements, with very limited bug potential as well as some bug fixes.

Users are suggested to try out this versions and report errors. If we don’t learn of serious problems, we will most probably release 7.6.0 next week based on this code here.

More detailed information is available in the changelog.

rsyslog 8.1.3 (v8-devel) released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , ,

We have just released 8.1.3 of the v8-devel branch.

This release contains further performance improvements. Note that both the output module interface and strgen interface have been changed and (some) modules may need to be modified. For the v8 supported rsyslog provided modules this has already be done (see v8 compatibility document for a list of supported modules). This release also detects failed actions more precisely. Finally, there are a couple of bug fixes in this release.

Note that this release can be considered a “normal” devel version, with moderate risk associated to it. Experience in the past weeks suggest so. Special thanks to Pavel Levshin for all his work and tests. Still note that there is a considerably higher risk running the devel version than the stable one.

rsyslog 8.1.2 (v8-devel) released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , ,

We have just released 8.1.2 of the v8-devel branch. This is primarily a maintenance release, but offers some improvements. Thanks to Pavel Levshin, mmnormalize now offers higher performance and we have added the ability to link directly to jemalloc. Also, usability of queue settings has been improved by using better (and dynamic) defaults for a range of settings.

rsyslog 8.1.0 (v8-devel) released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , ,

This is the initial and EXPERIMENTAL release of rsyslog v8. This release contains a rewritten core engine and is expected to perform much better in high performance environments with complex configurations (namely log normalization, Elasticsearch, Databases and remote forwarding).

We release this version in the hopes that interested parties have a look at it and provide feedback (including bug reports). However, it is NOT suitable for production use — for the time being please use rsyslog v7.5 for this.

More details can be found at:

Please be also sure to review the compatibility document:
