Log Analytics AIX
Hi,
up to now log analytics is not available on AIX.
According to this blog post it´s planned for a future OneAgent release. Unforunately I couldn´t find any current information on this topic.
Is there any news when Log Analytics will be available on AIX?
Thanks
Any news about the ETA for AIX? (EAP maybe) Syslog is OK for host logs, but mostly useless for application logs or middleware unless the logging can be reconfigured to syslog.
There is new feature that allows you push logs to dynatrace over API, maybe this will be helpfull...

I know this feature, it is handy for some use cases. But for application servers such as WAS this not (directly without 3rd party tool) usable if you can't force them to do remote logging.
AIX support for Log Anaytics is on hold. You can configure syslog to stream data from any log file on the disk. See for example:
https://serverfault.com/questions/396136/how-to-forward-specific-log-file-outside-of-var-log-with-rsyslog-to-remote-serv
We are working on this however with lower priority than other tasks. In the meantime (with S155) you will be able to forward logs from syslog sources that is OS-agnostic and will also support AIX platforms.
