Yes, I really need a central log server, it's easier to debug, with the firewalls on each host, in case of a ddos for example.

Let me explain. 1.) logstash, splunk, nxlog can read any format anyways (regex support to parse files) 2.) using json blows up space usage 3.) json is harder to read for humans 4.) json require a parsers which is slow down things And finally, we can easily add code to send data directly to a log server (maybe in json format). The whole point is that I want to have local files with "easy to parse" format, so that we can view them easily and "fast" (those files can have many entries!). So I would like to have code to send data direct to log servers (using syslog protocol, or json, ...) We need that for pveproxy and pvefw-logger.
