C220 M4 - Troubleshooting syslog

[doran_lum]

Hi all, 

I'm trying to troubleshoot on the syslog for my Cisco UCS C220 M4 which we are not able to figure it out.

Is there any way to SSH to the UCS DRAC IP or run some telnet command from the UCS GUI interface ? 

I try to putty in to the UCS DRAC IP but not able to bypass the login details. Anyone know the default admin & password ?

Hi Doran,

Do you need to review these logs without generating them via the CIMC gui? 

If you just need to get the logs you can collect them via the CIMC, see below.

Hi Manuel,

We wouldn't need to review these logs on the CIMC GUI. It's just an requirement from our security to have these physical Cisco UCS syslog to be logged to our Splunk systems.

It's just that these syslog are not reaching our Splunk servers and I check on the network side, all traffic are allowed. 

Currently this Cisco UCS are install with VM vSphere and in production.
