  • 1.  Syslog in HA cluster config

    Posted 09-20-2011 10:37

    Hello,

    To configure syslog in a SRX HA cluster environment, what is the difference between
    configuring it like this:

    set system syslog file default-log-messages any any
    set system syslog file default-log-messages structured-data


    and like that:

    set groups node0 system syslog file default-log-messages any any
    set groups node0 system syslog file default-log-messages structured-data
    set groups node1 system syslog file default-log-messages any any
    set groups node1 system syslog file default-log-messages structured-data


    Reference:
    http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB16448

    I did some tests and I see both of the configurations work and they log to nsm.

     

    I am talking here about the cluster confirguration not the stand-alone configuration


    Thanks

    Any settings in the node groups will apply to just that node.

    In your example you are applying the same config to both nodes, therefore it does exactly the same thing as just applying it once in the system stanza.

    Yes, that makes sense. So there is no need to separate the configuration if the content is the same
