Verify Data is Arriving in LogScale

Once you have completed the above steps the NGINX server data should be arriving in your LogScale repository.

You can verify this by doing a simple search for #logtype = "nginx-access-log" and a search for #logtype = "nginx-error-log" to see the access and error logs respectively.

You can also check that the dashboards are beginning to populate with data

Note

Some dashboard widgets have a default time period of 30 days but for simpler testing you can select a shared time of the last 1 hour which makes it easier to see the data when only recently arrived in LogScale.
