Last step is missing in R80.40 Upgrade Documentation for Log Exporter

ProxyOps — Thu, 30 Apr 2020 11:08:13 GMT

Hello,

I noticed a small missing step during the R80.40 Upgrade Guide for Management Server.

In the chapter "Reconfigure the Log Exporter" are 4 steps described. But the 5 step is missing.

After the second "cp_log_export reconf" a "cp_log_export status" indicates that the services are still not running yet.

We had this problem after 3 diffrent Management Upgrades to R80.40.

The following command solved the problem for us:

"cp_log_export start"

Otherwise the log exporter would have stayed on "not started".

Kind regards

Niklas Zache

You're right. It is supposed to state. to reconf & restart/start.

cp_log_export reconf; cp_log_export restart;

I'll check & make sure to fix.

Thank you Niklas.

On the "Upgrading a Security Management Server or Log Server from R80.20 and higher with Advanced Upgrade" page at the bottom it also says "cp_log_export reconf" for step 3 and 4. Step 4 should probably state "cp_log_export restart". I have not checked other pages but perhaps this error got copy-pasted elsewhere...
