LTM syslog shows hostname. I need FQDN.

We have a bunch of LTMs called lb01a/lb01b. They all syslog to the same servers. 2 of them creates logfiles with FQDN which is what we need. The rest is just using the hostname lb01a/lb01b.

 

How can I ensure that FQDN is used?

 

Best regards Jan

    Thanks, use_fqdn(yes); solved the problem. A litte strange since we had 2 working boxes, but none of the boxes had this option enabled.

     

    Problem is solved, I am happy. :)
