Does the ``-'' sign have meaning in rsyslog.conf
- by Aleksandr Levchuk
Rsyslog is backwards-compatible with Syslog configuration files.
The syslog.conf man page has:
You may prefix each entry with the
minus ``-'' sign to omit syncing the
file after every logging. Note that
you might lose information if the
system crashes right behind a write
attempt. Nevertheless this might give
you back some performance, especially
if you run programs that use logging
in a very verbose manner.
but I could not find aything about the - sign in man rsyslog.conf.
What does rsyslog do when if reads - in the config file?
