Syslog Output File Splitting HOURLY at Syslog Server












0















I have implemented syslog server on CentOS and using below Template to generate output file on daily basis -



$template TmplNationalIP_PL, "/var/log/NIPFW/MX480/CGNAT_PL_%$year%.%$month%.%$day%"
if ($msg contains 'OR_NAT' and $msg contains '55.91.165.') then ?TmplNationalIP_PL
& ~


Similar to above (daily), I am looking to split syslog files on HOURLY basis (instead of daily).



Can you please suggest how I can split syslog messages files on HOURLY basis as I couldn't find any HOURLY variables to use?



Also, I am using logrotate + cron jobs but there is no option to rotate hourly basis in logrotate (minimum is daily).



Below is the snip from cat /etc/logrotate.d/syslog



/var/log/NIPFW/MX480
{
rotate 50
daily
copytruncate
missingok
notifempty
compress
delaycompress
dateext
maxage 30
sharedscripts
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}


Many thanks in advance.
