[users@httpd] Centralised logging for access logs.
Hi there,
I am looking at ways i can more reliably centralise apache access logs into
a single logging area, i have discounted syslog on the basis of reliabilty
and the sheer volume of log entries i need to handle.
I am canvassing opinion on what others who maintain large configurations
might do, any pointers on where to look next.
I am going to look at something called mod_log_spread but are there any
other products or off-the-shelf approaches.
many thanks in advance
Steve

Steve,
You might want to take a look at mod-sflow, it is provides
lightweight, centralized logging and performance counters using the
sFlow protocol:
http://blog.sflow.com/2011/01/http.html
If you also run Host sFlow agents on your Apache servers you will also
be able to centrally monitor network traffic, system performance
counters etc. across your cluster.

Regards,
Peter
