  • 1.  syslog-ng & QRadar CE integration

    Posted 02/04/21 03:10 PM
    Hi, 

    I have a comprehensive syslog-ng environment which is collecting logs, I am now looking at sending these logs to CE for demonstration purposes, however I am unable to see any logs that I send from syslog-ng appear in CE, in addition I cannot see that CE is listening on IPv4 Port 514 or 601 (Standard syslog ports).

    If anyone has any idea or can guide me it would be greatly appreciated.

    Phil.

    Hi Phil,

    this sounds like your CE hits this issue: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/6395080
    Please check this first. Just run this command as described in this support note..

    /opt/qradar/support/all_servers.sh -Ck 'if [ -f /opt/qradar/ecs/license.txt ] ; then echo -n "QRadar:Q1 Labs Inc.:0007634bda1e2:WnT9X7BDFOgB1WaXwokODc:12/31/20" > /opt/qradar/ecs/license.txt ; fi ; if [ -f /opt/ibm/si/services/ecs-ec-ingress/current/eventgnosis/license.txt ] ; then echo -n "QRadar:Q1 Labs Inc.:0007634bda1e2:WnT9X7BDFOgB1WaXwokODc:12/31/20" > /opt/ibm/si/services/ecs-ec-ingress/current/eventgnosis/license.txt ; fi ; if [ -f /opt/ibm/si/services/ecs-ep/current/eventgnosis/license.txt ] ; then echo -n "QRadar:Q1 Labs Inc.:0007634bda1e2:WnT9X7BDFOgB1WaXwokODc:12/31/20" > /opt/ibm/si/services/ecs-ep/current/eventgnosis/license.txt ; fi ; if [ -f /opt/ibm/si/services/ecs-ec/current/eventgnosis/license.txt ] ; then echo -n "QRadar:Q1 Labs Inc.:0007634bda1e2:WnT9X7BDFOgB1WaXwokODc:12/31/20" > /opt/ibm/si/services/ecs-ec/current/eventgnosis/license.txt ; fi ; if [ -f /usr/eventgnosis/ecs/license.txt ] ; then echo -n "QRadar:Q1 Labs Inc.:0007634bda1e2:WnT9X7BDFOgB1WaXwokODc:12/31/20" > /usr/eventgnosis/ecs/license.txt ; fi ; if [ -f /opt/qradar/conf/templates/ecs_license.txt ] ; then echo -n "QRadar:Q1 Labs Inc.:0007634bda1e2:WnT9X7BDFOgB1WaXwokODc:12/31/20" > /opt/qradar/conf/templates/ecs_license.txt ; fi'
    Verify, if events are received after you've applied this command.

    Regards,
    Ralph
