1. Save original version of rsyslog.conf
Note: do not overwrite if rsyslog.conf-original already exists, it should already be there from the company image, so this step is normally skipped
# cp -p /etc/rsyslog.conf /etc/rsyslog.conf-original
2. See generic Rsyslog page for other config options
3. Update /etc/rsyslog.conf
3a. Add the following line to end of ModLoad/MODULES section to enable the desired server mode
UDP: # UDP server module $ModLoad imudp # enable UDP server and port $UDPServerRun 514 OR TCP: # TCP server module $ModLoad imtcp # enable TCP server and port $InputTCPServerRun 514
3b. Add the following line to the beginning of the logging/RULES section (before #kern.* line);
# log all to mySql *.* :ommysql:127.0.0.1,Syslog,syslog-insert,somepwA
4. Restart rsyslog service
ENT 7 # systemctl start rsyslog BEFORE Ent 7 # service rsyslog restart
