Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.

Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |

Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Configure Streaming of Logs
OMi MP for AWS enables data collection from the Cloud Watch log file. The log data is structured in a specific format to provide information about account ID, region, group, stream, timestamp, and message. The structured data is further processed by Operations Agent and forwarded to required targets.
OMi MP for AWS provides AWS CloudWatch Log aspect and AWS Log Collection aspect. The aspects and related policies are available as OMi MP for AWS Log Streaming AddOn 01.00.000 package.
Log streaming is supported on Operations Manager i 10.61 (or later) and Operations Agent 12.04 (or later) versions.
The AWS CloudWatch Log Aspect creates AWSCloudWatchLog.log
log file at /var/opt/OV/log/AWS/
location. The AWS CloudWatch Log aspect collects logs at 5-minute frequency.
Note Make sure the following:
- Deploy the AWS CloudWatch Log aspect before you deploy the AWS Log Collection aspect.
- To collect logs, set the same frequency(polling interval) for both AWS CloudWatch Log aspect and AWS Log Streaming policy.
The AWS Log Collection aspect enables the streaming of structured logs for cloud watch logs. AWS Log Collection aspect contains Log Streaming and Data Forwarding policies that must be configured before deploying the aspect. Data from the log file is converted to structured data based on the mapping and conditions defined in the Log Streaming policy. Operations Agent processes the data and then forwards it to the target specified in the Data forwarding policy.
Deploy Aspect and Policies for AWS Log Streaming
You must deploy the aspects and policies in the following order for AWS log Streaming:
- Deploy AWS CloudWatch Log aspect. AWS CloudWatch Log aspect creates the
/var/opt/OV/log/AWS/AWSCloudWatchLog.log
file. Log data is collected from the log file. -
To load historic data, configure the AWS_LogStreaming policy. Else, go to step 3.
For more information about configuring the log streaming policy, see Configure Log Streaming Policy.
-
To specify the target and filter conditions, configure the AWS_DataForwarding policy.
For more information about configuring the data forwarding policy, see Configure Data Forwarding policy.
- Edit the AWS Log Collection Aspect to include the latest version of AWS_LogStreaming and AWS_DataForwarding policies and click Save.
- Deploy the latest version of AWS Log Collection aspect.
