The rsyslog utility can be used to manage log messages on Oracle Linux 9 systems. The /etc/rsyslog.conf file stores configuration settings for the rsyslogd daemon.

The /etc/rsyslog.conf file contains global directives, module directives, and rules for the daemon or service. By default, rsyslog processes and archives only syslog messages, but rsyslog can also be configured to archive any other messages that journald forwards, such as kernel, boot, initrd, stdout, and stderr messages.

For more information about rsyslog, visit https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/ or run the following command install the rsyslog-doc package for offline documentation:

sudo dnf install -y rsyslog-doc

Offline documentation is installed in the /usr/share/doc/rsyslog/html directory.
