Yes it is possible.

We already did that, we direct all the logs to a remote log repository, and then using Graylog we present the information that is aggregated.

Hi,
I'm replying because I'm already interested in this topic.
In fact, we'd like to monitor VR and collect logs with rsyslog.
So, is it possible to modify the template image to configure an rsyslog and
snmp to allow monitoring of all new deployed VR?

Thank you.

Hi Alexander,

As you point out the attack surface of the VRs have been minimised and the
system VMs overall hardened.
You have two issues with updating the software on the VRs – an update has
the potential to break VR services (or agent services on SSVM/CPVM) as you
already mentioned,  in addition any updates will obviously be lost the next
time you restart a network with cleanup. You would also need to somehow
automate the updates on new VRs.

In general I would think most CloudStack users will wait for new system VM
templates to be released – but interested in hearing other thoughts on this.

     Hi all,

     at the moment we try to improve our monitoring of the virtual routers
in our environment.
     For this we also monitor the update status of the machines and could
see that there are some updates pending (OS Updates not Template Updates) .

     So what would like to know is if you have some experience in pathing
the virtual routers and if you have an update strategy for this (redundant
router,etc..).
     I am in worry that some updates could crash the services which are
responsible for communication with the cloudstack controller.
     I am also not sure if the attack surface is too small to don't worry
about patching.

     Any ideas or comments are welcome.
     Thank you.
     Alexander
