Access to service logs

You can use the ITCMSystem::ConfigSync::download_file() command to download log files. BIG-IP put's it's status in the system log file (/var/log/messages). This does get updated with other system messages and is rotated regularly so it might be tricky managing the content and freshness of the file. I'd be interested in hearing what you do with this.

OK. Some of the things I was thinking of doing was to use the F5 logs

 

to provide reports on the availability of servers, services, etc.

 

 

We could potentially use the various F5 logs around the company to pinpoint

 

issues and weaknesses in our infrastructure.

 

 

I'll have to think a bit about this...
