Verifying log forwarding

This documentation is part of the Forward logs to Graylog guide. You can view the complete guide here: Learn how to configure your Stackhero instances to forward system logs to Graylog for centralised log management..

To ensure that logs are being forwarded correctly:

  1. Open the Graylog web interface.
  2. Navigate to the Search section.
  3. Enter a query, such as "logs from".
  4. Look for log entries from your instance (e.g., "Logs from svc-xxxxxx") sent to <XXXXXX>.stackhero-network.com:12201.
