I recommend downgrading to 7.2.6-1 ASAP. Bug is > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974335 . Better bug link: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974132 Turns out this is ultimately a journald bug (and explains why journalctl has been busted for me lately). But still, if you're hit by it, you're going to want to nerf rsyslogd ASAP, because until you do, it will spam /var/log/messages until your disk is full. Mine had reached 8GB by the time I noticed. Some other poor bugger's got to 30GB.
