Wired Intelligent Edge

HI, Could someone kindly clarify, where the logs are stored in PSM and how many days it can store the logs. I have heard that it can process 10000 logs/sec.

Hi.

I'm not sure exactly where in the file system the logs are stored, my guess is somewhere in:  /var/log

Mostly you will look at the logs from WebUI under Tenants > Firewall logs

There is also a tab for further Analyzing these logs.

I would strongly recommend a separate log system like Splunk or Elastic. And a Firewall log export policy configured in the PSM.

In the Pensando user guide page 53 it states 10K logs per second with a burst rate of 20K is supported.

For this to happen you need to a cluster of 3 PSM servers. 

Page 19 also states the storage considerations for this.  5TB of storage with 10K logs per second with 30 days retained.
