Hello, I have rsyslog 8.2102.0 installed on Redhat 9 via DNF package manager. I recently configured rsyslog to read DNS queries out of NameD and send them to a Splunk instance via UDP. Due to Splunk licensing constraints we decided to restrict how many messages are retrieved with the "MaxLinesPerMinute" config for imfile. After setting this value, rsyslog will consume all available memory on the machine and crash.
I am confused as to why this "memory leak" happens when a limit is put in place via MaxLinesPerMinute. Without MaxLinesPerMinute there are no memory issues. I can include config files and impstats if necessary. <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onu.edu&source=gmail-html&ust=1674828335432000&usg=AOvVaw28_De1JtB-AXSBY3ffLqIg> <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.instagram.com/ohionorthern/?hl%3Den&source=gmail-html&ust=1674828335432000&usg=AOvVaw2T5Mr7Skb1malhmRz_e6L7> <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.facebook.com/OhioNorthern/&source=gmail-html&ust=1674828335432000&usg=AOvVaw3nAxUn3wIQnybVvpceEIDC> <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://twitter.com/ohionorthern?ref_src%3Dtwsrc%255Egoogle%257Ctwcamp%255Eserp%257Ctwgr%255Eauthor&source=gmail-html&ust=1674828335432000&usg=AOvVaw2gJCHRWcjlGtZi5ft71zQz> <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvdGjbOWVUkVJZVm0l-px7g&source=gmail-html&ust=1674828335432000&usg=AOvVaw1nIUlB6-a3l6ENfFlK-WfL> *Jeremiah Garmatter* Linux Systems Administrator Office of Information Technology IT Building 107 419-772-1074 j-garmat...@onu.edu _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list https://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
