The rsyslog service on AlmaLinux OS 9 must be active.

The "rsyslog" service must be running to provide logging services, which are essential to system administration.

Verify that "rsyslog" is active with the following command:

$ systemctl status rsyslog rsyslog.service - System Logging Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Mon 2024-03-04 10:10:08 UTC; 3h 20min ago

If the rsyslog service is not active, this is a finding.

To enable the rsyslog service, run the following command:

$ systemctl enable --now rsyslog
