New Install issues

Post by nathanplatt »

Hi Guys,

I've downloaded the .ova and installed logserver. I have it monitoring a Xenserver fine, but when trying to configure it for one of the VM's its not working. The script ran without issue but the logs aren't transferring through. Is there a way I can check on the server to see if something is blocking the transfer?

I would look at customizing a tcpdump command to verify if things are coming through / being dropped. Something like this should work - tcpdump -s 0 -i any port 5544 (replace 5544 with the port you are expecting traffic on / sending on.)
