Pool availability through HSL
Hi,
is it possible to send pool availability logs via HSL? Those logs automatically appear within LTM logs, we would need to send those via High speed logging.
Thanks,
Zdenek
Hello Zdenda.
Yes, of course you can.
Taking into account your log messages are something like this:

You should follow these steps:
1. Configure a Log Destination { > System > Logs > Configuration > Log Destinations }
- Create a new destination
- Select Remote High-Speed Log Type
- Select Pool (remote syslog server)
- Select protocol (TCP/UDP)
2. Configure a Log Publisher { > System > Logs > Configuration > Log Publishers }
- Create a new publisher
- Include your previous Log Destination profile
- If you want to keep your local logging you should also include "sys-db-access-publisher"
3. Configure a Log Filter { > System > Logs > Configuration > Log Filters }
- Create as many filters as messages ID you need to send
- Severity: Notice
- Message ID: 01070727, 01070638 (One filter by code)
- Use the publisher previously created
This is just an example. You can create your own custom set of message ID using this table.

Hi, that is really helpful. I didn't realize I could use log filter for this. Thanks for pointing this out, I will try it.
