README

BOSH release to run rsyslog-kafka

Background

What is rsyslog-kafka?

This release integrates the omkafka module from rsyslog to forward your logs to a kafka cluster.

Usage

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

 upload release https://github.com/hybris/rsyslog-kafka-boshrelease

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

lates/make_manifest warden
 -n deploy

For AWS EC2, create a single VM:

lates/make_manifest aws-ec2
 -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: rsyslog-kafka1
type: dynamic
cloud_properties:
  security_groups:
    - rsyslog-kafka

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

You now suffix this file path to the make_manifest command:

lates/make_manifest openstack-nova my-networking.yml
 -n deploy
