Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
none
What this PR does / why we need it:
I sometimes receive this request from users for aggregator.
There are several reasons:
We can simulate this by adding new field for cluster detection in forwarder side and check it in aggregator side. But it makes configuration complicated.
We can rewrite tag with
route
or similar plugins but it has performance penalty for large traffic.The implementation is very simple and it resolves above cases. So supporting these parameters is reasonable.
Docs Changes:
Will send a patch to fluentd-docs after merged.
Release Note:
Same as title.
