Duplicated logs

Hello,

 

I have 2 FAZ (same model, same firmware 5.2.6).

One is in collector mode, the other in Analyzer mode.

 

I had some hardware failures on both devices.

 

I want to replicate logs (for compliance, I need them in two devices).

 

Basically when happen was:

1st April - Collector failed. Analyzer receive logs directly.

*7 DAYS WITHOUT LOGS ON COLLECTOR*

8th April - Fix Collector. Collector receive logs and forward them to FAZ.

10 April - Analyzer Failed. Collector stop forwarding logs.

15 April - Analyzer online. Start receiving logs.

 

I need to have all logs on both devices. The TAC told me to use log forward to backup the logs, and the delete manually the logs (files in log browse) that are duplicated. I'm not sure how will that work. Since are very little days, and they won't fill a log file (just a percentage inside a log file).

Any ideas on what I can do?

Is there another way to solve the problem?

What happen if the Collector have 2 identical logs?

 

Thanks!
