Transferring Logs to DMS

Updated on 2025-01-21 GMT+08:00

You can use DMS APIs to retrieve logs in real time.

NOTE:

Currently, this function is available only to whitelisted users. To use it, submit a service ticket.

Prerequisites

  • Logs have been ingested to LTS.
  • You have purchased a DMS instance.
    NOTE:

    You will be billed for the storage you use in DMS. For details, see Product Pricing Details.

  • Before registering a DMS Kafka instance, configure an inbound rule to allow access from 198.19.128.0/17 over port 9011. If DMS's subnet is associated with a network ACL, you need to configure an inbound rule for the network ACL. For this rule, set the protocol to TCP, the source IP address to 198.19.128.0/17, the port number range to 1 to 65535, and the destination port to 9011, and allow the destination IP address.

Transferring Logs to DMS

  1. Log in to the LTS console and choose Log Transfer in the navigation pane on the left.
  2. Click Configure Log Transfer in the upper right corner.
  3. On the displayed page, configure the log transfer parameters.
