It's lunchtime already? Shit. I should probably attempt to do something productive soon.

I'm trying to figure out why I destroyed the loggly storage maximum in our first weekend... I really don't have that many servers.

It's rarely the volume of servers, it's what they are logging. We had one do this to us, it was being brute forced. The volume issues is what led us to the fix.
But if you are running windows servers, they log like crazy by default and will use up the volume with just two or three servers. If you have well tuned Linux, you might get twenty.

Yep, I noticed the linux servers are logging almost nothing... Where as I got ~1,000,000 logs both Saturday and Sunday from the three windows servers I setup to test.

@coliver Thats a lot.

Yeah, that's a bit much

Tell me about it.... Looks like it was logging ever time nxlog sends info to Loggly, or anytime SW accesses one of those servers... which ends up being a significant amount. I must have configured something incorrectly.
-
@coliver "Oh no worries bro, we saw that you logged something so we logged a log of your log!"
hehehe

Haha... those are great... now to figure out how to fix it. Once I resolve the issues does Loggly generally start logging again?
