ServerInputName¶

Overrides the inputname property for the diagnostic TCP listener’s own log messages.

This parameter applies to imdiag: Diagnostic instrumentation.

Name:: ServerInputName
Scope:: input
Type:: string
Default:: input=imdiag
Required?:: no
Introduced:: at least 5.x, possibly earlier

Description¶

Sets the inputname metadata assigned to log messages originating from the imdiag TCP listener itself (for example, connection warnings). This does not affect the inputname of messages injected via the control channel, which always remains imdiag. This parameter must be configured before using ServerRun. This ensures the listener logs use the desired identifier from startup onward.

Input usage¶

module(load="imdiag")
input(type="imdiag"
      listenPortFileName="/var/run/rsyslog/imdiag.port"
      serverInputName="diag-main"
      serverRun="19998")

Legacy names (for reference)¶
