.SH "NAME" journal-remote.conf, journal-remote.conf.d -
Configuration files for the service accepting remote journal uploads
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP These files configure various parameters of
systemd-journal-remote.service(8). See systemd.syntax(7) for a
general description of the syntax.
.SH "CONFIGURATION DIRECTORIES AND PRECEDENCE"
.PP The default configuration is set during compilation, so configuration is
only needed when it is necessary to deviate from those defaults. The main
configuration file is loaded from one of the listed directories in order of
priority, only the first file found is used: /etc/systemd/, /run/systemd/,
/usr/local/lib/systemd/ [1], /usr/lib/systemd/. The vendor version of the
file contains commented out entries showing the defaults as a guide to the
administrator. Local overrides can also be created by creating drop-ins, as
described below. The main configuration file can also be edited for this
purpose (or a copy in /etc/ if it is shipped under /usr/), however using
drop-ins for local configuration is recommended over modifications to the
main configuration file.
.PP In addition to the main configuration file, drop-in configuration
snippets are read from /usr/lib/systemd/*.conf.d/,
/usr/local/lib/systemd/*.conf.d/, and /etc/systemd/*.conf.d/. Those drop-ins
have higher precedence and override the main configuration file. Files in
the *.conf.d/ configuration subdirectories are sorted by their filename in
lexicographic order, regardless of in which of the subdirectories they
reside. When multiple files specify the same option, for options which
accept just a single value, the entry in the file sorted last takes
precedence, and for options which accept a list of values, entries are
collected as they occur in the sorted files.
.PP When packages need to customize the configuration, they can install
drop-ins under /usr/. Files in /etc/ are reserved for the local
administrator, who may use this logic to override the configuration files
installed by vendor packages. Drop-ins have to be used to override package
drop-ins, since the main configuration file has lower precedence. It is
recommended to prefix all filenames in those subdirectories with a two-digit
number and a dash, to simplify the ordering. This also defines a concept of
drop-in priorities to allow OS vendors to ship drop-ins within a specific
range lower than the range used by users. This should lower the risk of
package drop-ins overriding accidentally drop-ins defined by users. It is
recommended to use the range 10-40 for drop-ins in /usr/ and the range 60-90
for drop-ins in /etc/ and /run/, to make sure that local and transient
drop-ins take priority over drop-ins shipped by the OS vendor.
.PP To disable a configuration file supplied by the vendor, the recommended
way is to place a symlink to /dev/null in the configuration directory in
/etc/, with the same filename as the vendor configuration file.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP All options are configured in the [Remote] section:
.PP Seal=
Periodically sign the data in the journal using Forward Secure Sealing.
Added in version 229.
.RE
.PP SplitMode=
One of host or none.
Added in version 220.
.RE
.PP ServerKeyFile=
SSL key in PEM format.
Added in version 220.
.RE
.PP ServerCertificateFile=
SSL certificate in PEM format.
Added in version 220.
.RE
.PP TrustedCertificateFile=
SSL CA certificate.
Added in version 220.
.RE
.PP MaxUse=, KeepFree=, MaxFileSize=,
MaxFiles=
These are analogous to SystemMaxUse=, SystemKeepFree=,
SystemMaxFileSize= and SystemMaxFiles= in
journald.conf(5).
MaxUse= controls how much disk space the systemd-journal-remote
may use up at most. KeepFree= controls how much disk space
systemd-journal-remote shall leave free for other uses.
systemd-journal-remote will respect both limits and use the smaller
of the two values.
MaxFiles= controls how many individual journal files to keep at most.
Note that only archived files are deleted to reduce the number of files
until this limit is reached; active files will stay around. This means that,
in effect, there might still be more journal files around in total than this
limit after a vacuuming operation is complete.
Added in version 253.
.RE
.PP Compression=
Configurs acceptable compression algorithms to be announced through
Accept-Encoding HTTP header. The header suggests
systemd-journal-upload to compress data to be sent. Takes a space
separated list of compression algorithms, or no. Supported algorithms are
zstd, xz, or lz4. When a list of algorithms is specified, Accept-Encoding
header will be constructed with priorities based on the order of the
algorithms in the list. When no, Accept-Encoding header will not be sent.
This option can be specified multiple times. If an empty string is assigned,
then all the previous assignments are cleared. Defaults to unset and all
supported compression algorithms will be listed in the header.
Example:
Compression=zstd lz4
Added in version 258.

💣💥🧨💥💥💣 Please note that those configuration files must be available at all times. If /usr/local/ is a separate partition, it may not be available during early boot, and must not be used for configuration.
