AIX

Due to a project I'm currently tasked with I'm spending my time trying to find a way to forward the syslog to a remote, in this case Red Hat, server and squeezing it into a SQL DB.
Rsyslog is doing this job quite nicely for most of our test-servers, but I couldn't find any reliable information on how to do this with AIX.
I found a bare handful of posts with split opinions of "works" and "doesnt".

Would appreciate any feedback if someone has already tried this, with rsyslog or another tool and succeded.

regards

I forward my syslog events to another server running a syslog server by putting this line in the /etc/syslog.conf:

Code:

*.debug         @10.10.10.10

You'll need to refresh the syslog daemon with:

Code:

refresh -s syslogd

Hopefully this is what you needed help with and not the loading into SQL DB part.
