Remote sysloging (rsyslog) of Hypervisor

Latest response

Hi,

Has anyone been able to configure remote logging on a Hypervisor using tcp. When I configure rsyslog and start it using init scripts, it doesn’t seem to work the same way as on a standard enterprise rhel 6.2

When debugging it look like the module lmnsd_ptcp doesn’t get loaded properly. And a tcpdump shows no packes is send.

The same result is produced if I try using’-f’ to define configurationfile. I allso compare /etc/init.d/rsyslog and /etc/init.d/functions wit at rhel6.2 and they do not differ.

 

Any help is appreciated.

**/etc/rsyslog.conf**
*.* @@RsyslogServerIP:10775

**Fail to work: Doesn’t send tcp messages**
# service rsyslog restart
# /etc/inet.d/rsyslog restart

**This works: Sends tcp messages**
# /sbin/rsyslogd -i /var/run/syslogd.pid -c 4
