      .You cannot set the `name` parameter for the `imuxsock` input type

      Previously, the `logging` RHEL system role incorrectly set a name parameter for the `imuxsock` input type. As a consequence, this input type did not support the `name` parameter and the `rsyslog` utility on the managed node printed this error `...parameter 'name' not known -- typo in config file?...`. This update fixes the `logging` RHEL system role to ensure that the `name` parameter is not associated with the `imuxsock` input type.
