Rsyslog

The rsyslog Collector binary is an executable that generates Tornado Events from rsyslog inputs.

The collector is pre-configured and is not to be started manually.

The example of the rsyslog event is:

{
   "type": "syslog",
   "created_ms": 1713881098196,
   "payload": {
      "@timestamp": "2024-04-23T16:04:58.016685+02:00",
      "facility": "daemon",
      "host": "myhostname",
      "message": "my-service.service: Failed with result exit-code.",
      "severity": "WARNING",
      "source": "systemd",
      "syslog-tag": "systemd[1]:"
   },
