each peer in the cluster.

Logging
The Event Log and Configuration Log on each
peer will only report activity for that particular
VCS. We recommend that you set up a remote
syslog server to which the logs of all peers can
be sent. This will allow you to have a global view
of activity across all peers in the cluster. See

The security certificates and certificate
