Description Anandeep Pannu 2018-08-28 14:42:32 UTC
Description of problem:
All customers require logging, which is currently (as of OSP 13) provided by fluentd. Due to ECL promoting use of rsyslog in RHEL 8, we have to consider a move to logging and forwarding using rsyslog to be compatible with ECL.  Since ECL is moving to rsyslog support, this means that we will have to start supporting  rsyslog in OSP 15, with parallel fluentd support (while indicating to customers that fluentd is being deprecated). This avoids OSP 16 (Long Life Release) having to support fluentd.   During upgrade any fluentd logs not sent to central logging will need to be converted to rsyslog logs. We need to also look at the issue of double sending of logs once the upgrade is done. 

In order to have parallel fluentd support with rsyslog in RHEL 8 we will need to re-package the fluentd packages for RHEL8 Ruby versions

A general fluentd sanity check for RHEL is needed.
