Kirk Lund updated GEODE-2644:
-----------------------------
Component/s: configuration
> 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: configuration, logging
> Reporter: Kirk Lund
> Labels: AlertAppender, Log4j2, LogWriterAppender, log4j2.xml
>
> Presently Geode dynamically creates, adds and removes AlertAppender and
> LogWriterAppender by manipulating log4j2 core API. We should move the bulk of
> the Appender functionality to internal classes and just leave the Appenders
> registered with log4j2 during the life of the JVM.
> This allows us to enable and configure our Appenders via log4j2.xml and
> control the Cache-controlled lifecycle internally without having to add and
> remove custom Appender instances.
> The code would then become simpler, we could avoid invoking log4j2 core APIs,
> and users would have control over configuring our use of log4j2 completely
> within the .xml file. Presently, a user cannot configure our AlertAppender or
> LogWriterAppender in log4j2.xml.
