Running ESX5i and have re-directed the log files to splunk so if the server ever has a problem I have something to refer to since they are not saved after a crash and or reboot. Problem is when I reboot the splunk server esx logs stop sending data to splunk. I have to issue the following command to get log data flowing again "esxcli system syslog reload". Other systems start re-sending data on their own. What am I missing?
Thanks
