Get NXLog to indicate separate source for specific input

It can sometimes be desired to separate OS level logs from application logs, one approach for doing so using NXLog is to use a different hostname for specific inputs. In the example below, we are setting a specific hostname for a specific log file:

<Input applog>
 InputType LineBased
 Module im_file
 File "D:/apps/myApp.log"
 CloseWhenIdle TRUE
 Exec $Hostname = “my.host.name”;
</Input>

<Output>
 Module    om_udp
 Port      5514
 Host      <unomaly hostname>
</Output>
