you probably want Eucalyptus to send it's logs to rsyslog with the syslog
protocol, not have them written to disk.
/var/log is the traditional location for writing logs to disk for humans to find
later.
If you are intending for Eucalyptus to write it's logs somewhere, and then for
rsyslog to then find the logs and send them elsewhere, there is no 'standard'
place for such logs to be. I would put them wherever it's 'standard' to have
them in Eucalyptus configs and then configure rsyslog to find them there (this
would be imfile coniguration), but as I noted above, it's far better to write
directly to syslog rather than going to disk first.

Hello,
Thanks sir for quick reply.
To export logs mean I want to configure Eucalyptus cloud to direct its
logs to location which rsyslog uses (/var/log as Rainer sir)
then I want to configure rSyslog client to export logs to rSyslog server.
If I am not wrong the below mentioned are criterias that
come under the term "Log export"
Please correct me if I am wrong!!
Thank you !!!
no, there is no place that rsyslog requires anything to be.
But what do you man by "to export logs"
you could mean places for rsyslog to find logfiles that it then sends
elsewhere
you could mean places that rsyslog writes logfiles
you could mean (as you seem to below) places for rsyslog to temporarily
queue messages that it is trying to send.
