Multi-line logs

Description

Logs containing event records spanning multiple lines. An example of multi-line logs is application debug logs that contain stack traces. Such event records start with a timestamp, followed by an error message and the stack trace. Multi-line logs require special treatment because the log collector must be aware of the components that comprise a single event record.

NXLog Agent supports multi-line logs via the dedicated Multiline Parser extension. This module allows you to define how to parse log records, including specifying header and footer lines, or setting a fixed line count.
