Hi,
I’m running influxdb1.6.3, telegraf 1.8.0 on RHEL 7.4 on my clients. Seems that Influxdb spams my /var/log/messages file with hundreds (if not thousands) of messages based on the collection times of the influx configuration. How do I turn them off?
Seems like there’s a number of posts here and in GitHub (#1006/#8319) that relate to this but shouldn’t the system install with all except very basic logging (e.g. error) turned off?
The documentation seems confusing talking about [http] logging and by default to /var/log/influxdb/influxd.log
when running as a service, but that certaining doesn’t happen on my boxes.
I need to install InfluxDB onto a number of system and would like to do this automatcially rather than having to configure each machine separately.
Having got a successfully running system, i now have machines that are clogged with messages. Please help.
TIA
Martin
