Editing Syslog settings
This topic describes how to specify the Syslog settings necessary to report a failure in the
storage system.
Before you begin
■
You must have the Storage Administrator (Initial Conguration) role to perform this
task.
■
You must install a server that supports Syslog.
■
You must release the port to be used for sending Syslog data if a rewall is used.
For more information, see the System Administrator Guide.
Procedure
1. Display the Device Manager - Storage Navigator main window.
2. From the Settings menu, select Environmental Setting > Edit Alert Settings.
3. For Notication Alert, select one of the following:
■ All (Sends alerts of all SIMs.)
■ Host Report (Sends alerts only of SIMs that report to hosts.)
Alert destinations are common to Syslog, SNMP, and Email.
4. Click the Syslog tab.
5. For Transfer Protocol, select the protocol you want to use for sending Syslog data.
6. To send Syslog data to the primary server, select Enable for Primary Server and
then specify the following items:
■ IP Address
■ Port Number
■ Client Certicate File Name, Password, and Root Certicate File Name
Specify this setting only when New Syslog Protocol (TLS1.2/RFC5424) is
selected for Transfer Protocol.
