Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place.

DESCRIPTION

Installs rsyslog to replace sysklogd for client and/or server use. By default, server will be set up to log to files.

REQUIREMENTS

Platform

Tested on Ubuntu 8.04, 9.10, 10.04.

For Ubuntu 8.04, the rsyslog package will be installed from a PPA via the default.rb recipe in order to get 4.2.0 backported from 10.04.

Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04 are no longer supported releases and have not been tested with this cookbook.

Cookbooks

ATTRIBUTES

  • rsyslog[:log_dir] - specify the directory to store logs (applicable to server only), default /srv/rsyslog
  • rsyslog[:server] - specify the remote rsyslog server. default false (no remote server)
  • rsyslog[:protocol] - specify whether to use udp or tcp for remote log transmission. tcp is default.

USAGE

To replace the sysklogd syslog service with rsyslog:

include_recipe "rsyslog"

To set up a client with a remote [r]syslog server:

include_recipe "rsyslog::client"

By default, this cookbook will use TCP so the server should be configured for TCP. This can be done easily with the server recipe:

include_recipe "rsyslog::server"

To switch to UDP, change the rsyslog[:protocol] attribute. Note this needs to be done on each client as well.

Also, the server configuration will set up log_dir for each client, by date. Structure:

<%= @log_dir %>/YEAR/MONTH/DAY/HOSTNAME/"logfile"
