<h1>Oracle Database Output Module</h1>
<p><b>Module Name: omoracle</b></p>
<p><b>Author: </b>Luis Fernando Muñoz Mejías <Luis.Fernando.Munoz.Mejias@cern.ch></p>
<p><b>Available since: </b>: 4.3.0
<p><b>Status: </b>: contributed module, not maitained by rsyslog core authors
<p><b>Description</b>:</p>
<p>This module provides native support for logging to Oracle databases. It offers
superior performance over the more generic <a href="omlibdbi.html">omlibdbi</a> module.
It also includes a number of enhancements, most importantly prepared statements and
batching, what provides a big performance improvements.
</p>
<p>Note that this module is maintained by its original author. If you need assistance with it,
it is suggested to post questions to the
<a href="http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog">rsyslog mailing list</a>.
<p>From the header comments of this module:
<p><pre>
This is an output module feeding directly to an Oracle
database. It uses Oracle Call Interface, a propietary module
provided by Oracle.
Selector lines to be used are of this form:
:omoracle:;TemplateName
The module gets its configuration via rsyslog $... directives,
namely:
$OmoracleDBUser: user name to log in on the database.
$OmoracleDBPassword: password to log in on the database.
$OmoracleDB: connection string (an Oracle easy connect or a db
name as specified by tnsnames.ora)
$OmoracleBatchSize: Number of elements to send to the DB on each
transaction.
$OmoracleStatement: Statement to be prepared and executed in
batches. Please note that Oracle's prepared statements have their
placeholders as ':identifier', and this module uses the colon to
guess how many placeholders there will be.
All these directives are mandatory. The dbstring can be an Oracle
easystring or a DB name, as present in the tnsnames.ora file.
The form of the template is just a list of strings you want
inserted to the DB, for instance:
$template TestStmt,"%hostname%%msg%"
Will provide the arguments to a statement like
$OmoracleStatement \
insert into foo(hostname,message)values(:host,:message)
Also note that identifiers to placeholders are arbitrarry. You
need to define the properties on the template in the correct order
you want them passed to the statement!
