Configuring remote logging
You can enable remote logging to save log entries on a remote server. Remote logging can be helpful when you must set a detailed debugging log level to help isolate a problem or monitor behavior over a long time period.
Before you begin
- You must have a syslog server available to listen for and capture events.
- The names of your catalog servers, container servers, and application servers (if you are using WebSphere® Application Server) must contain alphanumeric characters only. Syslog RFC 1364 does not allow non-alphanumeric characters for the TAG field. The TAG field contains the server name in the syslog messages.
