How to change settings for integrated syslog collector

Hello,

  i have a situation where syslog collector was already installed. As per this screenshot

syslog.jpg

I have not installed syslog collector before as an "integrated with VC" option - it was already in place. I have installed second syslog collector using standalone option and configured esxi boxes its ip. It works, but still i got the old information about the old syslog collector server.

What do i have to do in order to remove this information about the existing syslog collector thats in VC , so i can install my new syslog collector as integrated VC.

Many thanks for help

Greg

Hi,

Have you tried disabling the plugin from vCenter (Plugins->Manage Plugins) and than re-enabling it after the second installation, when you will choose "integrate with vcenter"?

Hi there,

not yet, will give it a try next week. I thought it might be described in some manual or other paper, but i could not find it anywhere.
