Error message: | Destination queue full, dropping messages; queue_len='10000', log_fifo_size='10000', count='4', persist_name='afsocket_dd_qfile(stream,serverdown:514)' |
Description: |
This message indicates message loss. Flow-control must be enabled in the log path. When flow-control is enabled, syslog-ng will stop reading messages from the sources of the log statement if the destinations are not able to process the messages at the required speed. If flow-control is enabled, syslog-ng will only drop messages if the destination queues/window sizes are improperly sized. |
Solution: |
Enable flow-control in the log path. If flow-control is disabled, syslog-ng will drop messages if the destination queues are full. Note that syslog-ng will drop messages even if the server is alive. If the remote server accepts logs at a slower rate than the sender syslog-ng receives them, the sender syslog-ng will fill up the destination queue, then drop the newer messages. Sometimes this error occurs only at a specific time interval, for example, only between For more information, see Managing incoming and outgoing messages with flow-control. |
