rsyslogd: imfile error: message received is larger than max msg size; message will be split and processed as another message
Issue
-
When enabling log forwarding in RHOSP, the rsyslog container shows an error saying that messages larger than the maximum allowed size have been processed:
[heat-admin@overcloud-controller-0 ~]$ sudo podman logs rsyslog rsyslogd: imfile error: message received is larger than max msg size; message will be split and processed as another message [v8.1911.0-7.el8_4.4] rsyslogd: imfile error: message received is larger than max msg size; message will be split and processed as another message [v8.1911.0-7.el8_4.4] rsyslogd: imfile error: message received is larger than max msg size; message will be split and processed as another message [v8.1911.0-7.el8_4.4]

Same error will also appear in /var/log/containers/stdout/rsyslog.log
