Save Syslogs to External Storage

Normally, received Syslogs are saved to a local syslog.log file, but by linking with an NFS/SMB server, they can be saved to external storage. You must restart the ThirdEye appliance for this setting to take effect.

  1. Click [Settings] on the Global Menu.

  2. Click [Syslog] and check “Logging to external storage”.

The “External logging” option is displayed when linked with an NFS/SMB server.

  1. Click [OK].

ThirdEye must be restarted for the settings to take effect.

  1. Click [OK] on the reboot confirmation screen, and ThirdEye will automatically restart.

Note:

Changing the syslog.log file location from local to external storage copies the local file to external storage. However, changing the syslog.log file location from external to local storage does not copy the files to external storage locally. This is not supported for security reasons.
