HPUX syslog configuration

Hi all,

We have few HPUX servers. Our monitoring server collects their CPU usage info, memory info and disk info in 5 min time interval.
Now, problem is massive access log from monitoring server logged in syslog.log on all hpux servers.

How can we prevent these access logs to be logged from particular host. Do I need to write script that does some search and delete action from log file? Or is there any other option?

Thanks

Why isn't the HP-Ux servers sending the requested data to your monitoring server?
Don't you have a client on your HP-UX boxes?

@vbe, it is common that a monitoring server pulls the data from the monitored systems.

Do you have an example line from syslog.log? Perhaps one can exclude a certain facility.loglevel?
Further it is possible to install a logfile rotation. Then the disk won't fill up.
