[syslog-ng] Architecture Question'

[CIKALA Frederic ROSI/DOSI]

Yes, i know it is not specific enough ...

But nobody here can tell me exactly the frequency of the logs that will be sent :-/

One thing is sure : it wont be 1 message per server per day, but something like 500 /server /days ...

Do you want to know something else ?

im afraid that the only answer you are going to get is:

Depends on what kind of traffic you expect to be seeing.. 7000 machines logging 1 message every minute is nothing but if you are expected to receive 1 message / second / server then you need a different setup..

You need to be more specific!

Hello everyone'

I'm new to this mailing list and i do not know syslogNG yet

Actually, i have to prepare a server that will centralize a lot of logs, from about 7000 other servers.
I've read that syslogNG is a great tool that can do a lot of interresting things.

Therefore, i chose this application for my project but i do not know if it needs big ressources to be launched ...

In fact, i'm wondering about the hardware i'll have to buy in order to make this project

Maybe someone of this list has got a greater opinion about what i'll have to buy for example "at least a 3gHz cpu, with 2 gig of ram ..."

It could be usefull', thank you ^^
