It would also be acceptable to simply write logs to a share on the system, such as the cache drive

Drive's in the array / cache / UD devices are only available when the array is started, and a ton of logging happens before that happens.

 

You can easily though leverage the "tail" command to basically append a new line to a file (placed where you want) as the syslog changes, but it will still have the same caveats

 

Something like

tail -f /var/log/syslog > /mnt/user/logging/syslog

What about being able to leverage a secondary USB device?

 

I would gladly pay for a second USB device that I can leverage somehow. I just had my array lock up entirely today and I don't know why. KVM didn't even work, so I NEED something to figure this out. 

 

I mean we could point it to sdaz, bypassing the array entirely and simply treating it as a drive within the Linux system.
