VMware Log Insight Search Ideas

I have not seen this question asked previously. Is there a way to modify the order the content pack dashboards appear in the drop down menu. I would like to sort them alphabetically

I am just clicking around searching in TP2. Suddenly my connection will start getting refused to log insight. After it comes back it will keep saying I'm not authorized. This can happen literally right after I log in. I added more ram thinking maybe it was just getting overloaded but ram usage is staying fairly flat. Checking the logs doesn't seem to show any issues.

This message keeps occurring as well even though the... more »

When I create an alert off of a query in LIM 2.0, we have been setting the alert to be 1 hr or more. When we go back to the alert later on, the settting is set to 5 mins instead of what was set.

Hello

 

Is it possible to hide the Content packs for a limited user only restrict to Dashbard ?

 

In advance thank you

I have purchased and installed LogInsight Version 2.5.0-2629935

I ma trying setting up Archiving.

I have configured a NFS share on an external Windows server pasted the nfs path as:

nfs://servername:/sharename

 

I am receiving an error: Failed to mount NFS location

 

Could anyone have found and solved this issue?

Currently log-insight does not have an option to raise and alert when it matches exact number of event in the query. This is especially required when i try to search for an unique error and want to send and email when it logs and the count =1

Does anyone have a good method for pushing out liagent configuration to VMs that serve a variety of functions? For example, we have VMs running SQL Server, IIS, AD, etc. We would like to push out the liagent config needed so these different VMs could feed the content packs for these products back on the Log Insight server.

It seems like using the Administration -> Agents section in the Log Insight UI would be the best... more »

Recently our LogInsight instance (v2.5) has been buried under long running Precomputation Active Queries. I can't seem to track down the source, nor any documentation explaining exactly what a Precomputation task is.

 

Any thoughts?

Hi.

 

I have a general question regarding domains.

 

IHAC wondering if there is a way to integrate multiple domain with log insight

 

They have a primary domain "global.ds.company.com" and want to add a child domain of "company.ds.company.com"

 

is this actually possible.

 

thanks

I am trying to improve the performance on my 2000+ URL site and identify broken URL's that are resulting in a 404 error when they should not. My problem is that there are also several URLs which SHOULD be returning 404/PNF errors mixed in among the other troublesome ones. How do I go about filtering out the pesky URLs and the innocent?

Hi, Does anyone know if the syslog client in ESXi will buffer messages locally in the event of a LI failure? The functionality would be much like the configuration parameter in LI Agent

; Max local storage usage limit (data + logs) in MBs. Valid range: 100-2000 MB.

Hi, Is it possible to create custom filters for event forwarding. We would like to use IP Address or possibly other variables?

 

Thanks

I have tested this all in a lab using clones of the machines I wish to use without problem, but when I try to add a worker node to a Log insight cluster the process stalls at "Initializing worker...". The worker says this on screen, and the master just remains a spinning cog where I clicked allow. Any suggestions as to how I fix this would be welcome.

Could somebody tell me whether Log Insight 2.5 or 3.0 will work with a certificate using key size 4096? The admin guides only mention 2048 but I was wondering if other values could be used?

Hello,

I just found out that i have created an unsupported configuration. I just added more and more disks and now have 4,4TB diskspace added to my stand alone server.

So i have to create a cluster. When i deploy the ovf it says:
"For Log Insight Clusters medium and large sized nodes should be used" As 3 nodes is the minimum this would mean 3*8vCPU's + 3x 16GB memory.

My standalone host only uses 4 cpu's and 8GB memory.... more »
