Description Tomas Heinrich 2014-06-26 08:24:29 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1113441 +++

Description of problem:
The imtcp plugin supports TCP keep-alive, but unlike the imptcp and imrelp plugins, it doesn't allow to set additional keep-alive parameters.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rsyslog-7.4.10-2.fc21

Steps to Reproduce:
Search the imtcp documentation for "keepalive".

Actual results:
tcp_keepalive_intvl, tcp_keepalive_probes, tcp_keepalive_time can't be set.

Expected results:
tcp_keepalive_intvl, tcp_keepalive_probes, tcp_keepalive_time can be set.

Additional info:
See tcp(7) man page.

This can be worked around by changing the system-wide settings in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_*.

Comment 5 Jiří Vymazal 2017-03-15 10:01:54 UTC

this is fixed in rsyslog v8, linking rebase issue

Comment 6 Jiří Vymazal 2017-03-15 10:08:51 UTC

As all options are present in rebased version (KeepAlive.Probes, KeepAlive.Interval and KeepAlive.Time) setting this to post
