To Edit the
syslog.conf
File
1. With the editor of your choice, open the
syslog.conf
file.
2. Edit the
syslog.conf
file to allow system messages to be forwarded to the
appropriate log files on the server.
Either add the above line, if it does not exist in
syslog.conf
, or modify the
existing line to show your server IP address. In this example,
192.148.226.1
is
the IP address assigned to the server during its initial configuration.
Note –
Use tabs to separate field entries when editing the
syslog.conf
file. If
tabs are not used, any edits will not be recognized by the array.
3. Save the
syslog.conf
file and exit the editor.
This change enables the array to send Info, Notice, Warning, and Error messages to
the server.
