+
+.. note::
+
+ During upgrades from versions prior to 4.20, the logging configuration file
may not be migrated automatically to the new Log4j2 format - especially if the
original log4j configuration file was manually customized or modified.
+
+ It is strongly recommended to verify **before starting the Management
Server and the Usage Server** that the configuration file (e.g.
`log4j-cloud.xml`) under `/etc/cloudstack/management` and
`/etc/cloudstack/usage` respectively uses the Log4j2 format.
+
+ If the file still uses legacy Log4j (version 1) syntax or structure,
**manually replace or update** the configuration using the default Log4j2
configuration supplied with the latest package.
+
+ Failure to update may result in missing or incomplete log generation after
upgrade.
