Load balancing with a round robin load balancing method based on the R_MSEC macro of syslog-ng OSE

This section describes a round robin load balancing method based on the R_MSEC macro of syslog-ng Open Source Edition (syslog-ng OSE) to load balance your logs between multiple syslog-ng OSE destinations.

TIP: If R_MSEC is not precise enough, you can replace it with R_USEC (which uses microseconds instead of milliseconds).

For more information about the R_MSEC macro and further macros of syslog-ng OSE, see Macros of syslog-ng OSE.

Example: round robin load balancing between multiple destinations

The following example is a round-robin load balancing method, based on syslog-ng OSE's R_MSEC macro.

destination d_lb_network { 
  channel { 
    channel { 
      filter { 
      "0" == "$(% ${R_MSEC} 2)" 
      }; 
      destination { 
        network("myhost1" 
          disk-buffer(mem-buf-length(10000) disk-buf-size(2000000))); 
      }; 
      flags(final); 
    }; 
 
    channel { 
    filter { 
    "1" == "$(% ${R_MSEC} 2)" 
    }; 

    destination { 
      network("myhost2" 
        disk-buffer(mem-buf-length(10000) disk-buf-size(2000000))); 
    }; 
    flags(final); 
    }; 
  }; 
}; 

The filter {" <return value >" == "$(% ${R_MSEC} 2)"}; code snippets (in bold) serve as the basis of the method. This filter separates incoming log messages' timestamp values based on the R_MSEC macro, using a division with remainder method, and distributes the log messages equally between two destinations based on the return value (in this case, 0 or 1).

If you need a file instead of a network destination, replace the network destination with the file in the example (and use the same analogy for any other syslog-ng OSE destinations).

For an alternative method to use the round robin load balancing method based on the R_MSEC macro, see Configuration generator for the load balancing method based on MSEC hashing.

Configuration generator for the load balancing method based on MSEC hashing

This section describes a configuration generator for the load balancing method based on MSEC hashing to load balance your logs between multiple syslog-ng Open Source Edition (syslog-ng OSE) destinations.

Caution:

Consider that network-load-balancer() is not a destination, only a script that generates the example configuration described in Load balancing with a round robin load balancing method based on the R_MSEC macro of syslog-ng OSE .

Also consider that the configuration generator script may change incompatibly in the future. As a result, One Identity does not officially support using this script, and recommends that you only use this script at your own risk.

As an alternative to using the example configuration described in Load balancing with a round robin load balancing method based on the R_MSEC macro of syslog-ng OSE , a configuration generator script is also available in syslog-ng OSE:

destination d_lb {network-load-balancer(targets(myhost1 myhost2 myhost3))};

Where destinations share the same configuration except for the destination address, balancing is based on MSEC hashing.
