Kirk Lund created GEODE-2644: -------------------------------- Summary: Provide ability to configure Geode appenders in log4j2.xml Key: GEODE-2644 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2644 Project: Geode Issue Type: Improvement Components: logging Reporter: Kirk Lund
Presently Geode adds and configures the LogWriterAppender and AlertAppender at runtime. These appenders cannot be specified or configured within xml. This is a request to change Geode so that these appenders can be specified and configured in a custom log4j2.xml file. This ticket requires GEODE-1275. Right now these appenders are added and removed by Geode when connecting or disconnecting from the DistributedSystem. When these appenders were introduced, this behavior was required to maintain previous behavior. If we refactor the appenders to add one more layer of indirection between the appender and the DS lifecycle, then this internal layer could enable/disable active appending even when the appenders are specified within log4j2.xml. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
