Syslog support for dracut
|
|
|
|
This module provides syslog functionality in the initrd.
|
|
This is especially interesting when complex configuration being
|
|
used to provide access to the device the rootfs resides on.
|
|
|
|
When this module is installed into the ramfs it is triggered by
|
|
the udev event from the nic being setup (online).
|
|
|
|
Then if syslog is configured it is started and will forward all
|
|
kernel messages to the given syslog server.
|
|
|
|
The syslog implementation is detected automatically by finding the
|
|
apropriate binary with the following order:
|
|
rsyslogd
|
|
syslogd
|
|
syslog-ng
|
|
Then if detected the syslog.conf is generated and syslog is started.
|
|
|
|
Bootparameters:
|
|
syslogserver=ip Where to syslog to
|
|
sysloglevel=level What level has to be logged
|
|
syslogtype=rsyslog|syslog|syslogng
|
|
Don't auto detect syslog but set it
