ok, i look at this.
Actually (first deploy with a dedicated log server) , i have:
./scripts/inventory-manage.py -G
rsyslog_container | log1_rsyslog_container-81441bbb
So, from what you write, not to create a log_container on the log server, i can modify my openstack_user_config.yml to be:
log_hosts:
log1:
affinity:
rsyslog_container: 0
ip: 172.29.236.240
Is that right ?

In openstack-ansible-rsyslog_client, the template 99-rsyslog.conf.j2 use :
*.* @{{ hostvars[server]['ansible_ssh_host'] }}:{{ rsyslog_client_udp_port }};RFC3164fmt
I will test to ensure the IP is that from log1.
If yes, no more modification is needed.
Thanks again.
