Edward Sargisson created FLUME-2050:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Upgrade to log4j2 (when GA)
Key: FLUME-2050
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2050
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Edward Sargisson
Log4j1 is being abandoned in favour of log4j2. Log4j2, by all that I've seen,
has better concurrency handling and the Log4j2 FlumeAppender is nice (easily
configurable, 3 different styles of agents).
Log4j1 has a concurrency defect which means that rolling over a log file into a
directory for the Flume spool directory source will not be reliable. Log4j2 has
fixed this.
Alternatively the log4j2 FlumeAppender may allow Flume to log its own logs via
itself.
