Hi Ciprian, you dont need to install anything on the server side, the Graylog collector plugin, that is needed for the Sidecar to work, is already included in the standard installation. When the Sidecar is registered under System->Collectors the only thing you have to do is to click on 'Manage configurations' and create a new one with a Gelf output pointing to your server address and a file or Windows event input with the settings you need. Apply the same tag you used for the Sidecar to associate this configuration with the running Sidecar.
