The typical solution here is to have the poller send NMIS events using syslog to the master which are stored in slavepoller_event.log, then opEvents processes this event log instead of the local event.log and opEvents on a single server can handle the events for all pollers. The nodes from the remote pollers will need to be added to opEvents so it knows what to do with them.
...
c. We need to add a section to tell the NMIS master to receive the event log form the poller and where to store it. Under this section add:
| Code Block |
|---|
#slave#poller NMIS servers use local1 by default, capture that into slavepoller_event.log local1.* /usr/local/nmis8/logs/slavepoller_event.log |
d. Save the changes made to rsyslog.conf
e. Open /etc/sysconfig/rsyslog
f. Find the entry: SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-c 5" and change SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-c 4"
g. Restart the syslog service
