Customer would like to know if he can send a test message through Syslog on Unity Array ?

Customer would like to know if he can send a test message through Syslog on Unity Array ?

Syslog / splunk admins are telling they are not receiving messages.

Is this possible? I couldn’t find any information on support search or KBs.

I found only VMAX KB (53082 and 53082) and Connectrix (57296).

    Hello sancha08,

    You are not able to send a test message through syslog. Here are a couple of links to a couple of kb’s.  The first one is to EMC Unity: Alert Messages, ID List and Call home, & the second link is to How to send Security Audit log messages to syslog server.

    just a quick update regarding this. Each filesystem has capacity alarm thresholds. These can be exercised on a test filesystem to trigger a snmp event which will go to your syslog server if configured.
