Re: Log data is incorrectly displayed on the dashboard

It is worth noting that only logs that enter Nagios Log Server after the filter has been applied will be impacted by the filter. Looking at the document you provided, the failing logs are from 03-04, are you certain that new logs are still being impacted by this problem? I ran a few test simulations...
