The MDM syslog service can send VxFlex OS events, via TCP/IP, to RFC 6587-
compliant remote (or local) Syslog servers. Messages are sent with facility local0,
by default.
Once the syslog service is started, all events will be sent until the service is stopped.
This section describes how to use the CLI to start, stop, and configure the facility field
of the syslog events.
