Envoy rsyslog configuration is included in the "VMware-visl-integration" package and unpacked to "/etc/vmware-syslog/vmware-services-envoy.conf". Ensuring the package hashes are as expected also ensures the shipped rsyslog configuration is present and unmodified.
At the command prompt, run the following command:
# rpm -V VMware-visl-integration|grep vmware-services-envoy.conf|grep "^..5......"
If the command returns any output, this is a finding.
Navigate to and open:
/etc/vmware-syslog/vmware-services-envoy.conf
Create the file if it does not exist.
Set the contents of the file as follows:
#envoy service log input(type="imfile" File="/var/log/vmware/envoy/envoy.log" Tag="envoy-main" Severity="info" Facility="local0") #envoy access log input(type="imfile" File="/var/log/vmware/envoy/envoy-access.log" Tag="envoy-access" Severity="info" Facility="local0")
