How to write log4j output to HDFS?

[Dhanya Aishwarya Palanisamy]

Hi,

          Has anyone tried to write log4j log file directly to HDFS? If yes,
please reply how to achieve this.
I am trying to create a appender. Is this the way? My necessity is to write
logs to a file at particular intervals and query that data at a later stage.

Thanks,
Dhanya
