After the change to rsyslog I now see two logging files messages and vyos-rsyslog. Bot logfiles are in use and contain different logmessages, is this expected?
Why not simply still use the messages file even when running rsyslogd?
cpo@AC1:/var/log$ ls -al messages* vyos-rsyslog* -rw-r----- 1 root adm 23778702 Sep 7 09:27 messages -rw-r----- 1 root adm 189298 Sep 7 09:27 vyos-rsyslog -rw-r----- 1 root adm 262166 Sep 5 23:20 vyos-rsyslog.1 -rw-r----- 1 root adm 262289 Sep 3 18:10 vyos-rsyslog.2 -rw-r----- 1 root adm 262155 Sep 1 16:00 vyos-rsyslog.3 -rw-r----- 1 root adm 262163 Aug 29 23:45 vyos-rsyslog.4 -rw-r----- 1 root adm 262191 Aug 27 18:05 vyos-rsyslog.5
