cisco Prime 3.5 + Syslog Server

[Jay_Work]

Can anyone tell me the steps in order to get my switches to log events into Cisco Prime, so effectively using prime as a syslog server. I want this for scenarios where I am going to distribute images to switches and want the logs to be sent to prime so in the event of something going wrong I can raise a TAC call. 

I can see there are options for using Prime as a syslog server but the instructions and documents i've seen on the web on this arent particularity good. Anyone else using prime as as a syslog server?

When adding devices in prime, my guess is, it will automatically be configured as syslog server to send to.

I primarily use Prime for monitoring the wireless controllers (no switches) so not sure about this

if not, create a template for syslog server, apply this to the switches and in Prime open the path:
