Syslog display wrong information

I have configured my switch to send messages to the syslog server (XMC).

configure syslog add :514 vr VR-Default local0
configure log target syslog :514 vr VR-Default local0 from
enable log target syslog :514 vr VR-Default local0
configure log target syslog :514 vr VR-Default local0 filter DefaultFilter severity Info
configure log target syslog :514 vr VR-Default local0 match Any
configure log target syslog :514 vr VR-Default local0 format timestamp seconds date dd-mm-yyyy event-name none tag-id tag-name

The information I see in syslog is see screencopy

I see the wrong info at source , client an the information isn't right (starts with minutes and seconds).

We just finished changing hardware to G2 switches and I ve migrate XMC from windows to an apliance.

Firmware is 22.4.1.4
.
I don't use a syslog proxy

Messages from EWC looks oke

Is the issue present also for new messages comming? Do you have kind of syslog proxy/forward between your switch and XMC?

nop. did not help for the syslog messages that XMC receive from switches.

Not sure if NetSight is the right setting for your deployment. It may be Ubuntu. I am not sure if restart is required.
