accessing VSX member in winscp

Hi Mates,

I'm trying to access the log files located in the /var/log directories of the individual VSX cluster members. Could you advise on the appropriate method for accessing these logs using winscp tools?

I don't understand the problem. Just connect with WinSCP to the IP and browse to /var/log and copy the files. Make sure the user you use ends up in /bin/bash maybe WinSCP will give an error related to this. You might also get fingerprint pop-up the first time you connect.

You need to know the number ID of your VS.

Then the file structure will be something like this.

/opt/CPsuite-R81.10/fw1/CTX/CTX00005/log/

In expert mode, this corresponds to typing vsenv 5, then cd $FWDIR/log/ on a R81.10 VSX cluster member.

Dear @Lesley When I connect to the VSX cluster's IP address, I can access the default VSX member (VSenv 0). However, I'd like to access a specific member, such as VSenv 1 or VSenv 2.

Ah check, VSX for me is VS0 in as stated in opening post 😉

But what Alex typed is correct.
