RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: rhel-system-roles-1.0-21.el8
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
.The Logging System Role now supports property-based filter on its outputs With this update, property-based filters have been added to the files output, the forwards output, and the remote_files output of the Logging System Role. The feature is provided by underlying the `rsyslog` sub-role, and is configurable via the Logging RHEL System Role. As a result, users can benefit from the ability of filtering log messages by the properties, such as hostname, tag, and the message itself is useful to manage logs.

Description of problem:
RHELPLAN-56797 - Logging - RFE - support property-based filters in the files and forwards outputs

https://github.com/linux-system-roles/logging/issues/179

In an rsyslog.conf file I would use the following:
:msg, startswith, "somefilter" -/var/log/output.log

Rsyslog doc: https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/v8-stable/configuration/filters.html

Hi David,
As described in #c1, there is a test case in the upstream CI to verify this bug.
Could you give a qa_ack+?
Thanks!
