    Inside rsyslog.conf:

    input(type="imfile"
    File="/home/log/errorlog_2.log"
    Tag="File2"
    addMetadata="on"
    reopenOnTruncate="on"
    PersistStateInterval="0"
    Ratelimit.interval="10"
    RateLimit.Burst="500"
    Facility="local6"
    Severity="notice")

    Errors in console log:

    Michael,

    if this is on AIX - and you are trying to move logs from AIX to non AIX can you just use - /etc/syslog.conf and have all the logs go to destination.

    ​Hi minesh,

    Yes, we move DB logs from AIX hosts to Linux CLAP hosts. And, used imfile module to transfer those DB logs to local6.notice and sent to CLAP hosts.

    However, we want to limit the transfer rate? How can we do that? Thanks a lot.
