mscherer / ansible-role-rsyslog

Ansible module used by OSAS to manage rsyslog.

This role requires a dogtag instance, like the one setup by IPA in order to manage the TLS certificates used to export the log over TLS.

Example

This role can be used like this:

$ cat deploy_rsyslog.yml
- hosts: all
  roles:
  - role: rsyslog
    syslog_server: syslog.example.org

The role will detect it is running on the syslog server, and install all the configuration required for the master there.

Location of the logs

The log by default are placed in /srv/logs/. The directory must be created manually before use on the main server, and cannot be configured for now.
