NAME Set-VMHostSysLogServer
SYNOPSIS
This cmdlet configures the remote syslog server of the specified hosts.
SYNTAX
Set-VMHostSysLogServer [[-SysLogServer] <NamedIPEndPoint[]>] [-VMHost] <VMHost[]> [-Server <VIServer[]>]
[-SysLogServerPort <Int32>] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
This cmdlet configures the remote syslog server of the specified hosts.
PARAMETERS
-Server <VIServer[]>
Specifies the vCenter Server systems on which you want to run the cmdlet. If no value is given to this
parameter, the command runs on the default servers. For more information about default servers, see the
description of Connect-VIServer.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? true
-SysLogServer <NamedIPEndPoint[]>
Specifies the sys log servers you want to configure. The parameter accepts objects of the NamedIPEndPoint,
IPEndPoint, IPAddress, and String types. The accepted formats, if string is used, are DNS names and the
standard IPv6/IPv4 format: FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:192.168.0.1:80, where the
FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF can be replaced by any hex value with the same structure (both upper or lower
case). It is only meaningful in case of IPv6 address and is omitted for IPv4. The 192.168.0.1 part is
mandatory and can be any address in the IPv4 format. The :80 part is optional. If omitted, the port must be
specified through the SysLogServerPort parameter. If Syslog is set to $null, the configured syslog server, if
any, is removed.
Required? false
Position? 1
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-SysLogServerPort <Int32>
Specifies the sys log server port. Must be specified if the string that is passed to the SysLogServer
parameter does not contain the port value, or the argument of the SysLogServer is an IP address.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VMHost <VMHost[]>
Specifies the host whose syslog servers you want to configure.
Required? true
Position? 2
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? true
-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]
If the value is $true, indicates that the cmdlet asks for confirmation before running. If the value is $false,
the cmdlet runs without asking for user confirmation.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value $true
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]
Indicates that the cmdlet is run only to display the changes that would be made and actually no objects are
modified.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value False
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
OUTPUTS
The modified NamedIPEndPoint object
NOTES
