Hi David,

Graylog is using log4j 1.2 for its own logging needs. You can download and 
configure one of the existing log4j GELF appenders (see 
https://marketplace.graylog.org/addons?search=log4j) to write Graylog's log 
messages into Graylog itself. This being said, there is the possibility of 
feedback loops (something going wrong while indexing, producing lots of log 
messages, which in turn make things worse because there are lots of 
messages about the things going wrong), so I'd recommend sending only 
specific loggers back into Graylog.

There's also a recent pull request (
https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/pull/1452) which enables 
accessing the internal log messages via the Graylog REST API. This will be 
included in Graylog 1.2.2 and later.

Cheers,
Jochen
