Enable Syslog

NOTE: To enable syslog you must have Power User privileges or higher.
  1. Log into the array.
  2. Go to Administration → Alerts and Monitoring → Syslog.
  3. Check the Enable Syslog Server checkbox to enable the Syslog Server and Port fields.
  4. In the Syslog Server field, enter a valid host name or IP address of the syslog server you will use.
    No check is performed to determine whether the host name exists or the IP address exists or is valid.
  5. In the Port field, enter the number of the UDP port used to communicate with the server.
    The port must be a valid integer [0-65535]. Unsupported and invalid ports within this range will not be validated.
  6. Click Save.

    The value for the port is validated.

    • If there is an error in validation, a tooltip message is displayed showing the error.
    • If there is no error, the settings are saved. Syslog is now enabled for this array, using the server and port you specified.
