24.3 Logging RAM disk connections and operations

By enabling logging with the following procedure, you can which systems connect to the Insight
Control for Linux RAM disk, and you can watch the progress of the RAM disk operations:
1.

Decide which system will receive these log events from the Insight Control for Linux RAM disk
and enable remote logging on that system. The steps for enabling remote logging vary with
the operating system; for more information, see the documentation for that OS.

2.

If you want information on the RAM disk operations, edit the syslog.conf file to log all
messages of type user.notice to either the /var/log/messages file or to a separate
file.

3.

Enabling logging from the Insight Control for Linux RAM disk depends whether you use PXE
with DHCP or virtual media; take the appropriate action:

For PXE with DHCP, follow these steps:

Edit the /etc/dhcpd.conf file to add the following line directly after the option
domain-name

specification:

a.

option log-servers logserver-ip

Where logserver-ip is the IP address of the system that will receive the log files.

b.

Restart the dhcpd service.

For virtual media:

Add the following line to the /opt/mx/icle/icle.properties file:

VIRTUAL_MEDIA_LOG_SERVER=logserver-ip

Where logserver-ip is the IP address of the system that will receive the log files.

The log output reports any systems that connect to the RAM disk in the /var/log/messages file
as the daemon facility. You can find the messages by searching for the string stunnel. Usually,
no modifications are necessary.
