Checking the Syslog Configuration File on UNIX
• To restart the SyslogAnalyzer process in RME, select Common Services > Server > Admin >
Processes and click Start.
Checking the Syslog Configuration File on UNIX
Check the path and permissions of the file pointed to by local7.info in the syslog configuration file
/etc/syslog.conf on the RME server.
Note The first occurrence of local7 in the syslog.conf file, must contain the path for the Syslog message
source.
Step 1 Make sure that the facility.level definition is set to local7.info, and that the following line is present
(there must be a tab between local7.info and the path/filename):
local7. info path/filename
Step 2 Make sure that the syslog process (syslogd) can both read and write to the file.
• If you modify the /etc/syslog.conf file, you must restart the syslog process (syslogd). Enter the
following command to stop and restart syslogd:
/etc/init.d/syslog stop
/etc/init.d/syslog start
• If the start and stop command do not work, enter:
kill -HUP 'cat /etc/syslog.pid'
Step 3 Make sure the path for Syslog message file in the CiscoWorks Server is the same as the filename you
specified in the syslog.conf file.
