NOTE:

Be aware of the following issues while editing the file /etc/syslog.conf:

Comments must be on a separate line and must begin with a pound (#) sign.

No redundant spaces are allowed after the file name.

The logging facility name and the information level specified in the /etc/syslog.conf file must be
identical to those configured on the SecPath using the info-center loghost and info-center source
commands. Otherwise the log information may not be output properly to the log host.

Display the process ID of syslogd, kill the syslogd process, and restart syslogd using the -r
option to make the modified configuration take effect.

# ps -ae | grep syslogd

# kill -9 147

# syslogd -r &

Make sure that the syslogd process is started with the -r option on a Linux log host.
After the above configurations, the system will be able to record log information into the log file.
