Hello macyero,

There is not a way to change syslog to a different port.  If you were wanting to configure remote logging you can do that with your Isilon, but you can’t change the syslog port.

I disagree with this.   We utilize Splunk for a syslog target and are utilizing a different port.  

Make a copy of the /etc/services for a backup.  Then modify /etc/services, comment the syslog 514/udp line, and add another syslog XXXX/udp line with the open port you want to use.     

run a tcpdump to vierify.  

The downfall, yes after an upgrade of the OneFS system you will need to update the servcies file again.
