Test Forwarding
Validates the current log forwarding configuration by checking the liveness of the remote machine and optionally sending a test diagnostic log message from the appliance to all configured logging servers to allow manual end-to-end validation. The message that is sent is: “This is a diagnostic log test message from vCenter Server.”
