om_tcp - reconnect(); on a schedule
I have a series of file inputs and tpc outputs. The output targets are geo-balanced across data centers which traffic is directed to based on the originating request. If we have a situation where we need to take one of the two collectors down all the agents would point at one side. Because of this, I want NXLog to reconnect to the output target at a particular interval. How do you properly use the 'reconnect();' procedure? We have a series of inputs using the same outputs.
<Output Tomcat_App_Logs_Out>
Module om_tcp
Host NP-NC-TOMCAT.Contoso.com
Port 4112
<Schedule>
Every 1 min
Exec reconnect();
</Schedule>
</Output>
