pri-text

Formats the RFC 5424 PRI header as facility.severity with the numeric PRI appended.

This property belongs to the Message Properties group.

Name:

pri-text

Category:

Message Properties

Type:

string

Description

Formats the RFC 5424 Section 6.2.1 PRI value as facility.severity and appends the numeric <PRIVAL> (for example local0.err<133>). Facility and severity names follow Tables 1 and 2 from RFC 5424. For inputs that lack a syslog header, rsyslog derives the facility and severity from configuration or other metadata before rendering this property.

Usage

template(name="example" type="list") {
    property(name="pri-text")
}
