Enabling vRealize Log Insight connection to workload domains

  • Introduction

    You can connect vRealize Log Insight in VMware Cloud Foundation to all workload domains in the SDDC Manager UI. After you have enabled the connection to vRealize Log Insight, you cannot disable it. All subsequently created workload domains are connected automatically and send logs to the vRealize Log Insight cluster.

    Enable the vRealize Log Insight connection

    You must have a valid license key for vRealize Log Insight, which is licensed separately from VMware Cloud Foundation. You can view your license in the vRealize Log Insight UI by going to Management > License.

    To enable the vRealize Log Insight connection to workload domains:

    1. Verify that the vRealize Log Insight cluster is online and operational.
    1. From the SDDC Manager Dashboard, click Administration > vRealize Suite.

    The vRealize Suite navigation bar is displayed. It shows the vRealize Suite products that are available for your VMware Cloud Foundation system deployment.

    1. Click vRealize Log Insight.

    The vRealize Log Insight page is displayed. The top portion of the page includes an Enable button, which is used to enable log collection for all workload domains. If log collection is not enabled, the Enable button is active. The lower portion of the page displays the configuration details, including load balancer hostname, node size, and node count.

    1. Click Enable.

    After a moment, the following message is displayed:

    Connect Workload Domains to vRealize Log Insight in Progress

    1. In Tasks, monitor the status of the Connect Workload Domains to vRealize Log Insight action.

    After the connection is successful, vRealize Log Insight collects logs from the management workload domain and all additional workload domains.
