[syslog-ng] Log statistics

[Stefan Jakobs]

Hello list,

I'm using syslog-ng 3.1.1 on a single user system. I'm getting these 
statistics in my logfile:

syslog-ng[1653]: Log statistics; processed='destination(newsnotice)=0', 
processed='destination(firewall)=1', processed='destination(newscrit)=0', 
processed='src.internal(src#0)=2', stamp='src.internal(src#0)=1284066773', 
processed='center(queued)=0', processed='destination(cron)=15', 
processed='destination(acpid)=0', processed='destination(d_freshclam)=13', 
processed='destination(messages)=175', 
processed='destination(localmessages)=24', 
processed='global(payload_reallocs)=0', processed='global(msg_clones)=0', 
processed='destination(d_clamd)=36', processed='destination(console)=13', 
processed='destination(mail)=52', processed='destination(netmgm)=0', 
processed='destination(xconsole)=13', processed='destination(warn)=16', 
processed='destination(newserr)=0', processed='source(chroots)=10', 
processed='global(sdata_updates)=0', processed='destination(mailerr)=0', 
processed='center(received)=0', processed='destination(devnull)=0', 
processed='destination(mailwarn)=1', processed='source(src)=242', 
processed='destination(mailinfo)=2'

I'm wondering why processed='center(received) and processed='center(queued) 
are zero. The documentation says: "The center(received) entry shows the total 
number of messages received from every configured sources." Any ideas?

Is it still true that center(received)=sum(source(*))+sum(src.internal(*))? In 
this example: center(received)=src.internal(src#0)+source(src).
And is this also right: center(queued)=sum(destination(*))?

And what is the meaning of 
stamp='src.internal(src#0)=1284066773', 
processed='global(payload_reallocs)=0',
processed='global(msg_clones)=0' and
processed='global(sdata_updates)=0'

These are a lot of questions, I know. Would be nice if someone can help out.

Thanks and best regards
Stefan
