Operating Systems Linux SuSE How to filter SYSLOG data to collect meaningful information only? Post 302941153 by rbatte1 on Monday 13th of April 2015 12:28:27 PM

I would go for collecting everything and then extracting what you actually need when you need it. It leaves masses of records never read, but there is no way to say to the server, "Hey, just go back in time, replay a process that I don't know quite when it happened and show me the logging now."

We have load and load & LOADS of output that is never looked at unless there is a problem and we rotate the logs out and away at sensible intervals to keep on top of it. if we don't need most of it in a week (production batch messages) then they are sent to tape and never seen again.
