vhsm monitor

Learn to monitor the log messages of a vHSM server.

The vhsm monitor command provides a real-time display of server logs from a running vHSM server . Stream log messages of a vHSM server. The monitor command lets you listenfor log levels that may be filtered out of the server logs. For example, the server may be logging at the INFO level, but with the monitor command you can set -log-level=DEBUG.

  • The command honors the VAULT_ADDR environment variable to determine the target server.

  • It runs indefinitely (similar to tail -f in Unix) and must be manually terminated.

  • If logs are generated faster than they can be processed, some log lines may be dropped.

Usage
