vRealize LogInsight integration

Hi,

i have a question about the integration of vRealize Loginsight.

With Operations Manager 6.5, i have the possibility to open the loginsight directly from the operations manager. Also i have a "Logs" Tab available to browse the logs for a particular host.

From the homescreen, i am able to open the new log Insight tab. But i have to authenticate. Is that "normal" or should it be sso?

If i search for a host and wan´t to open the new "logs" tab, i receive the message "This vROps is not integrated with a log insight yet.

I have configured the log insight solution to connect with my log insight server and the collection state is green. Also if i test the settings i am able to connect to the log insight server.

On LogInsight i have configured the vrealize operations manager to connect to my current operations manager instance. I also enable the "enable alerts integrations" and "enable launch in context".

The enable launch in context is working. I also created a own certificate from a internal ca to use with both products.

So the two questions are,

1. Why i am getting the error message "This vROps is not integrated with a log insight yet" while opening the logs tab?

2. Is it "normal" to not have SSO while click on the log insight button at the home screen. With my vrealize operations Active Directory Account, i have admin permissions in loginsight as well.

We are using the latest loginsight and vrops versions. But keep in mind, that we are using the "free" 25 osi license of loginsight.

You might be in a better situation that I am, my Logs tabs do not even show up for my ESXi Hosts in vRealize Operations Manager. I am running latest version of both products as well and I am using our Enterprise Cloud licensing.

In addition, for virtual machines, in order to have the Logs tab show up, I believe we needed to have the Log Insight agent running on the virtual machine, which we did, but also to no avail.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Frank

as for 1. I saw this issue once. I went into Log Insight and removed the integration and saved. Then I registered Log Insight with vRops again. That fixed the issue for me.

2. Yes this is normal. They have just iframed the Log Insight web page.

Let us hope that one day there will be a true integration between the two Smiley Happy

I have seen the same (No Log Insight or vRB menu options). Have not troubleshoot the environment yet for that issue. So don't know if there is a way to resolve that.

I think the best way to get that fixed is to open a case with GSS Smiley Wink

So I had a look at the customers environment and it turn out it was a security setting which was not enabled on the custom role which was assigned to the AD group. Might be the same issue?

Hi,

I have vROps license packs,

The enterprise does not require the log insight os number in its license version.
