<h2>$MarkMessagePeriod</h2>
<p><b>Type:</b> specific to immark input module</p>
<p><b>Default:</b> 1800 (20 minutes)</p>
<p><b>Description:</b></p>
<p>This specifies when mark messages are to be written to output modules. The 
time specified is in seconds. Specifying 0 is possible and disables mark 
messages. In that case, however, it is more efficient to NOT load the immark 
input module.</p>
<p>So far, there is only one mark message process and any subsequent 
$MarkMessagePeriod overwrites the previous.</p>
<p><b>This directive is only available after the immark input module has been 
loaded.</b></p>
<p><b>Sample:</b></p>
<p><code><b>$MarkMessagePeriod&nbsp; 600 # mark messages appear every 10 Minutes</b></code></p>
<p><b>Available since:</b> rsyslog 3.0.0</p>
