Add a KB article for a recurring support pattern: hardware/driver messages that repeat in System -> Logs without indicating a real fault (e.g. an HBA driver logging a failed ioctl on every poll). Covers capturing the stable message text, building a POSIX ERE pattern, adding it to syslog_regex_list via the API, reloading log capture per node, and verifying in the Logs view.

Summary
New KB article for a recurring support pattern: hardware/driver messages that repeat constantly in System → Logs without indicating a real fault — the classic case being a storage HBA driver logging a failed ioctl on every poll. The article walks through capturing the stable part of the message, building a POSIX ERE pattern, adding it to
syslog_regex_listvia the API, reloading log capture per node, and verifying in the Logs view.Type
How-to / Troubleshooting (system logs)
Source
Recurring support pattern. Promoted from internal support KB.
Note for reviewers
The
syslog_regex_listsetting isn't exposed in System → Settings → Advanced Settings, so the article routes users through System → API Documentation to set it. The central caveat, repeated in the intro and at verification: the filter only hides lines from the UI Logs view — the kernel still writes them, so they stay in the raw syslog inside a sysdiag by design. Verify in the Logs view, not by grepping a sysdiag.Checks
