Basically, on each individual server, the only active line you need is
You do the filtering/splitting on the the receiving server. If you match the message multiple times, you will record it multiple times. Do you have an example of the duplicated messages? If they are in different files, then remember that you are usually recording messages that are of the specified level and above, e.g. *.info will also pick up *.warn messages. You can specifically exclude hight levels, if that's what you want.
I would suggest using a DNS address in case you want to move your central syslog server, however some people worry that this requires the address to resolve as the rsyslogd starts, so I know that many people use a plain IP address.

pmdarsyslog
PMDARSYSLOG(1) Performance Co-Pilot PMDARSYSLOG(1)NAME
pmdarsyslog - rsyslog (reliable and extended syslog) PMDA
DESCRIPTION
pmdarsyslog is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports metric values from the rsyslogd(8) server. Further details about
rsyslog can be found at http://www.rsyslog.com/.
INSTALLATION
If you want access to the names and values for the rsyslog performance metrics, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rsyslog
# ./Install
If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rsyslog
# ./Remove
pmdarsyslog is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is
installed or removed.
In order to use this agent, rsyslog stats gathering must be enabled. This is done by adding the lines:
$ModLoad impstats
$PStatsInterval 5 # log every 5 seconds
syslog.info |/var/log/pcp/rsyslog/stats
to your rsyslog.conf(5) configuration file after installing the PMDA. Take care to ensure the syslog.info messages do not get logged in
any other file, as this could unexpectedly fill your filesystem. Syntax useful for this is syslog.!=info for explicitly excluding these.
FILES
/var/log/pcp/rsyslog/stats
named pipe containing statistics exported from rsyslog, usually created by the PMDA Install script.
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rsyslog/Install
installation script for the pmdarsyslog agent
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rsyslog/Remove
undo installation script for the pmdarsyslog agent
$PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd/rsyslog.log
default log file for error messages from pmdarsyslog
