I want to save my logs into /var/log so that I can send them to the Siem platform, because the platform is unable to receive them from /opt/log. The logs are saved into /opt/log because I am using a third party application.

    Maybe create a [symbolic link](https://askubuntu.com/questions/56339/how-to-create-a-soft-or-symbolic-link) for `/opt/logs` that points to `/var/log`? – Bovine Jan 09 '22 at 04:16
  • Maybe the application has a setting log directory? – user535733 Jan 09 '22 at 14:52

You could use a symbolic link to point the directory /opt/log to /var/log instead.

First make a backup copy of /opt/log:

sudo mv /opt/log /opt/log_backup

Then create the link:

sudo ln -s /var/log /opt/log
