Environment variables
The log path used for collecting logs from certain servers may contain environment variables. It’s important to note that on Linux systems, the ACC Agent can only access environment variables that reside in the /etc/environment file. Add the environment variables that the agent must access to the /etc/environment file using the format <NAME>='<VALUE>'. On Windows systems, you can create environment variables in the usual manner.
Default ACC-L checks
Agent Client Collector Log Analytics (ACC-L) provides the following default Type=Log checks.
- The log shipper check launches a background process that sends logs from servers to an agent data input, according to the check's configured log path. When access permissions are lacking or the log path is configured incorrectly, the system sends an alert to the instance. For proper log configuration, ensure that the servicenow user has permissions to access the configured log path on the machine that is hosting the agent, and that the log path is configured correctly.
- The log shipper for win events check is similar to the log shipper check, but sends event logs from Windows OS servers to the agent data input. Nota:To collect Security Windows event logs, servicenow users on an agent hosting machine must have admin privileges.
