Upgrade from syslog-ng OSE to syslog-ng PE -
说明
If you wish to upgrade your existing syslog-ng OSE installation to syslog-ng PE, there are a number of considerations to keep in mind. -
解决办法
Feature differencessyslog-ng OSE includes certain features that are highly experimental, require special external dependencies, or are important only to a very limited set of users.While syslog-ng PE is built from the same code base, it includes only a subset of syslog-ng OSE features. Those that are well tested and represent commercial value.These features are commercially supported as they are covered by automated end-to-end tests, which make sure that they not only compile but work correctly on many different platforms.This means that your syslog-ng OSE installation may contain features that are not part of syslog-ng PE, or if they are, they may not have been tested.PackagingThe packaging of syslog-ng OSE and syslog-ng PE also differ greatly.With syslog-ng OSE, distribution packages do not bundle dependencies and only include features for which dependencies are available within the distribution. Packaging is modular to make sure that you install only a minimal set of extra dependencies.In addition, the naming and content of subpackages varies between distributions, and there are also unofficial syslog-ng OSE packages enabling more features than available in official distribution packages.In the case of syslog-ng PE, all dependencies are included in a single package either in a distribution specific format (rpm or deb) or in a generic .run installer.Upgrading from syslog-ng OSE to syslog-ng PEThe cleanest way to upgrade from syslog-ng OSE to syslog-ng PE is to remove the syslog-ng OSE package from the system. This way you can avoid the packaging conflicts and feature differences. -
