Gluster default logging can be enabled by creating `/var/lib/glusterd/logger.conf` and restarting Gluster services.
But i would vote for a much better way to handle this in more document friendly manner - since creating a file and restarting is obscure and prone to errors. Avati's idea is perhaps even more valid syslog should be optional based on logger.conf and a parameter in it saying. /var/lib/glusterd/logger.conf: logging_style = syslog or /var/lib/glusterd/logger.conf: logging_style = glusterfs Regards -- Harsha On Sun, Jul 28, 2013 at 9:17 PM, Anand Avati <anand.av...@gmail.com> wrote: > We should also address the fact that in master branch, by default, gluster > logs go empty -- which is an annoying new default behavior, significantly > difference from how glusterfs has behaved for years.
