Set up your Health Log Analytics data inputs for Health Log Analytics manually. Data input configuration is an essential step in setting up the Health Log Analytics application.
Before you begin
Note: Consider using the Health Log Analytics data input guided setup, which ensures that you have the minimum required setup for the data input process. For more information, see Set up data inputs using Health Log Analytics guided setup.
- Ensure that a MID Server is installed and configured with the Log Ingestion capability enabled. For more information, see MID Server system requirements.Important: Health Log Analytics does not support IPv6. To work with the application, configure the MID Server to IPv4.
- If the MID Server IP address is exposed by network address translation (NAT), a load balancer, or a similar device, it must have a public IP address. In the MID Server properties, add a property named mid.public_ip with the public IP address as the value. For more information, see Create a MID Server property.
- For shipping your logs encrypted using SSL TLS, see the Streaming Data With Rsyslog & Filebeat Using SSL [KB0866319] article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.
- For MID Server proxy requirements, see MID Server proxy preconditions for streaming logs to HLA.
