Adding a Log Stream

Prerequisites

• DSC has been authorized to access the LTS assets. For details, see Allowing or Disallowing Access to Cloud Assets.
• LTS has been enabled and there are logs on it.

Supported LTS Log Data Types

You can add log streams from Log Tank Service (LTS) to DSC for log data management.

Adding a Log Stream

1. Log in to the DSC console.
2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region or project.
3. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Asset Center > Asset Management.
4. Choose Log > LTS. The Log Stream tab is displayed.

   Table 1 Parameters for adding a database

   Parameter	Description
   Asset	Enter a user-defined asset name containing 4 to 255 characters.
   Data Type	Select LTS from the drop-down list box.
   Log Group	Select a log group from the drop-down list box. A log group is the basic unit for LTS to manage logs. It comprises log streams and categorizes them. A log group does not store any log data. It only helps with log stream management.
   Log Stream	Select the log stream to be added from the drop-down list box. A log stream is the basic unit for reading and writing logs. Collected logs of different types are classified and stored in different log streams for easier log management. If there are a large number of logs, you can create multiple log streams and name them for quick log search.

7. After the asset is added, the Connectivity of the asset is Checking, which means DSC is checking the asset connectivity.
   • If DSC can access the added asset, the Connectivity is Succeeded.
   • If the DSC cannot access the added asset, the Connectivity is Failed. Hover the cursor over Failed to view the failure cause or rectify the fault by referring to How Do I Troubleshoot the Failure in Connecting to the Added Database?
