Re: [fw1-gurus] fwm logexport - does it work against MDS in NGX-R65?
I have never seen 'fwm logexport' work in P-1 environment - it is perhaps have to do it w/ how:
"You cannot run regular management server in Provider-1 environment
Please try to use 'fwm mds' instead"
I could verify again your 'fwm logexport -i $MDSDIR/log/fw.adtlog'
Now, in my lab env, I have my MDS Manager and Container sitting on
separate hosts - I had to scp 'fw.adtlog' from my MDS Mgr to /var/tmp
on my Container - hence the path to /var/tmp:
changed env 'mdsenv cma_name' and ran your command:
'fwm logexport -i /var/tmp/fw.adtlog -o mdsadtlogexport' which worked fine and gave me nice ascii conversion:
# fwm logexport -i /var/tmp/fw.adtlog -o mdsadtlogexport
Starting... There are 166 log records in the file
In short, 'fwm logexport' needs work from CP to work in 'fwm mds' env. Rob Hughes is right - you have to open a CP ticket on this ...and I can confirm sk36423 appears some 'internal only' solution and not visible publicly - Rob is a privileged internal guy:-)!
By the way, the only more relevant logs in $MDSDIR are 'audit logs' - do you need them exported regularly in ascii? Also, were you able to run 'fwm logexport' in any earlier version of P1 - as I said, I had never been able to run it before whenever I tried couple of times before?

I did a search on sk36423 and didn't find anything
but I saw some others fixed the issue that way. We usually just export on the
management, not the gateways, and we are only having problems exporting the
MDS's logs (CMA logs work)
Someone in the "community" section of the CP
support site suggests there might be an issue with a file lock, but that doesn't
explain why mdsenv to another CMA allows the command to work - mdsenv is mainly
changing env variables.

Should work. Were the firewalls upgraded? If so, you might want
to open a ticket and mention sk36423.

Using Provider01.
We use fwm logexport to generate
reports.
Can't get it work under NGX-R65, base
version or with any hotfix including up to HFA 40.
Get the message "failed to convert
database".
