According to:
  https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/System_Administrators_Guide/s1-interaction_of_rsyslog_and_journal.html

there are 2 ways rsyslog can get messages:
1) By default, rsyslogd uses the imjournal module as a default input mode for journal files.
2) As an alternative, configure rsyslogd to read from the socket provided by journal as an output for syslog-based applications. The path to the socket is /run/systemd/journal/syslog. 
   $SystemLogSocketName /run/systemd/journal/syslog

Is 2) no longer supported?

Regards,
Jan
