rsyslog 7.3.2 (v7-devel) released

This release introduced a totally new rate-limiting system for all modules as well as much better “last message repeated n times” handling. For details, please see Rainer’s blog at

http://blog.gerhards.net/2012/10/rate-limiting-in-rsyslog-732.html

Besides this feature, the version also includes enhancements for omelasticsearch as well as input batching support for imudp (which should provide some performance boost on very busy systems). Also, action-like statements (call, stop, …) are now supported in action lists. Of course, there are also some bugfixes, many imported from v6 and v7.2.

Changelog for 7.3.1 (v7-devel)

Version 7.3.1  [devel] 2012-10-19

  • optimized template processing performance, especially for $NOW family of properties
  • change lumberjack cookie to “@cee:” from “@cee: ”
    CEE originally specified the cookie with SP, whereas other lumberjack tools used it without space. In order to keep interop with lumberjack, we now use the cookie without space as well. I hope this can be changed in CEE as well when it is released at a later time.
    Thanks to Miloslav Trmač for pointing this out and a similiar v7 patch.
  • bugfix: imuxsock and imklog truncated head of received message
    This happened only under some circumstances. Thanks to Marius
    Tomaschwesky, Florian Piekert and Milan Bartos for their help in solving this issue.
  • bugfix: imuxsock did not properly honor $LocalHostIPIF

Changelog for 7.3.0 (v7-devel)

Version 7.3.0 [devel] 2012-10-09

  • omlibdbi improvements, added
    • support for config load phases & module() parameters
    • support for default templates
    • driverdirectory is now cleanly a global parameter, but can no longer be specified as an action paramter. Note that in previous versions this parameter was ignored in all but the first action definition
  • improved omfile zip writer to increase compression This was achieved by somewhat reducing the robustness of the zip archive. This is controlled by the new action parameter “VeryReliableZip”.

rsyslog 7.1.7 (v7-devel) released

This release adds the “call” statement, a superior replacement to omruleset. It also provides array-based string comparison operations and the ability to configure TLS permitted peers via the new config language. The 7.1.x branch is now 99% feature-complete.
