BOSH release to run nxlog

Background
What is nxlog

In concept NXLog is similar to syslog-ng or rsyslog but it is not limited to unix and syslog only. It supports different platforms, log sources and formats so nxlog can be an ideal choice to implement a centralized logging system.

Usage

To use this bosh release, first upload it to your bosh:

l> bosh upload release https://github.com/hybris/nxlog-boshrelease

For bosh-lite, you can quickly create a deployment manifest & deploy a cluster:

l> templates/make_manifest warden
l> bosh -n deploy

For AWS EC2, create a single VM:

l> templates/make_manifest aws-ec2
l> bosh -n deploy
Override security groups

For AWS & Openstack, the default deployment assumes there is a default security group. If you wish to use a different security group(s) then you can pass in additional configuration when running make_manifest above.

Create a file my-networking.yml:


orks:
name: nxlog1
type: dynamic
cloud_properties:
  security_groups:
    - nxlog

Where - nxlog means you wish to use an existing security group called nxlog.

You now suffix this file path to the make_manifest command:

l> templates/make_manifest openstack-nova my-networking.yml
l> bosh -n deploy
