SAP Note 6515 - rslgcoll(7): bind: Address already in use

Component : SAP Syslog -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/6515 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The central SysLog collector daemon in SAP systems occasionally crashes after system start-up, predominantly observed on HP-UX. The primary issue arises due to the 'rslgcoll' daemon being unable to bind its UDP port, typically set by the “rslg/collect_daemon/talk_port” parameter to 1500 + the system number. Logs suggest that this port is already in use. The resolution involves validating whether an old collector daemon still operates using the "ps" command, halting any unneeded processes during system downtime, or rebooting the system to free up ports. If problems persist, adjust the talk_port parameter across all profiles and restart relevant SAP processes.
