hello, splunkers.
I have question regarding ESXi log collection of Splunk App for VMware.
I've set up Splunk App for VMware 2.0 at vSphere5.1U1 environment. And I noticed it doesn't collect all necessary ESXi logs.
Hostd.log, messags, vpxa.log and vmkernel.log are collected, but Fdm.log is not.
Since vSphere HA log is stored in Fdm, it is essential to collect it.
Is there any way to collect additional ESXi log such as FDM.log ?
Thank you in advance.
P.S.
I'm using ESXi syslogd for ESXi log collection instead, but it would be much better to use Splunk App.
(ESXi syslogd collets Hostd, Rhttpproxy, vpxa, Fdm and vmkernel)
How about using an external Syslog server here it's and configure it so that it points to that.
