  • RHEL6.8 - How to configure second instance of syslog

    Posted on

    For HAProxy, we have to enable below parameters to redirect log entries from system log file(/var/log/messages).
    Note: We have few other parameters too, but I'm focusing on only this two over here.

    $ModLoad imudp

    $UDPServerRun 514

    Due to NIST security policy, our Infra top-level management not providing approval to enable this into /etc/rsyslog.conf file.

    So is that possible to create second syslog daemon/config on the server using different port only for HAProxy service? If yes, can you please share sample procedure?
