Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: 1) There was a missing '@' for an instance variable in the fleuntd remote syslog plugin code. 2) There were some cases that systemd-journald logged non-decimal facility values. Consequence: 1) Forwarding logs to remote rsyslog via UDP failed. 2) Forwarding a log record including a non-digital facility value failed regardless of the network protocol. Fix: 1) The missing '@' was added. 2) The fluentd remote syslog plugin checks the facility value. If the value is not in the defined value set, it resets to the default value. Result: Forwarding logs remote rsyslog do not fail.
