Hi Log4j2 Team,

My query is related to log4j2 working and uses of
LogManager.getLogger(String name); method.

My use case is that my application uses the above mentioned method to get
logger and log. Appender and Logger have been set in log4j2.xml file. We
stop the Logger by getting all core appenders , removing them , then
stopping them and then using the LogManager.shutdown() method.

The issue or anomaly arises when an update batch script starts the new
instance of the same application and the old instance takes some time to
exit, resulting in new instance getting the same logger using
LogManager.getLogger("AppName"); and writing in the same log file.

Once the 1st/old instance exists after a few seconds, it closes all the
logging and nothing on the file gets written even when the 2nd/new instance
is still up and running.

Kindly advise what can be done to handle this type of scenario when there
is no communication between the instances and are totally independent and
agnostic of each other.

Regards,
Danish Arif
