Nimbostratuscollection debuginformations without log reduction
Hi *,
the only way I know for troubleshooting iRules is to use the log statement, but the problem is, that the syslog-ng tries to reduce the log and reports something like "repeated 135 times" for 135 similar loglines.
Is there a way to supress this feature or better log to a dedicated logfile for debugging.
Bye

- Actually, it is possibly not syslog-ng that is reducing the duplicates, but the BIGIP's error log reduction code (there are really two levels).
In order to suppress the BIGIP's error rate limiting, you need to specify the log command with the facility. Like so:log local0. "My unique error message text: $variable"
syslog-ng will only remove truly duplicate messages, where as the BIGIP will rate limit the type of message regardless of the content. The above line will bypass this rate limiting based on message type.
