Unable to create a syslog new subscription event using the following DNS alias:
abc-changeauditor.group.services-collectabcd.ef.ghd.intra
If we remove the abcd part of collectabcd then we can create the subscription.
In this instance, the issue is with the length of the DNS segments.
Quest accepts DNS entries where the first entry must be between 2 and 63 characters, and each segment after this may be up to 15 characters.
This is why removing the last few letters of services-collectabcd allows it to succeed.
There is a way around this.
You can use the New-CASyslogEventSubscription Change Auditor PowerShell Commandlet to do this as it does not use the same DNS segment length test.
The instructions on loading the Change Auditor PowerShell commandlet are detailed in "Change Auditor PowerShell Command Guide.pdf" and you can use Get-Help -full New-CASyslogEventSubscription to get usage details of that specific commandlet.
