When Syslog-ng logs its hourly statistics, it uses level NOTICE. This seems like a classic case for INFO instead.
NOTICE is an event of which someone might want to take notice, e.g. "nightly backup has started" or "RAID rebuild is complete." INFO is just information someone might want to refer to later.
I see no point in changing this separately, one would need to go through all internal messages and recheck that their priorities are properly set. There are currently about 111 messages in syslog-ng (probably a bit less, my grep pattern was not perfect). I did this audit and committed a change and I also changed the "Log statistics" priority to info. You can find the results in tomorrow's snapshot, however I'd appreciate if you could check my judgement and see if I did something wrong. Thanks in advance. -- Bazsi
