Saurav Lahiri commented on CLOUDSTACK-3471:
-------------------------------------------
Mail to dev:
Prasanna,
This is regard to the ticket 3471 that you had raised. Your suggestion was
to have a cloudstack API. Based on the discussion and the way logging
is generally handled, it was felt that a API might not be the best thing.
I have documented a process to get a logging service enabled. I have also
attached two scripts to the wiki doc which will enable setting up a template
with the various services enabled and which can be used to spawn the
guests with the services. I have tested it for CentOS templates and
Ubuntu templates. If there are any issues do let me know and I can fix
them. Do give it a try and let me know if this serves the purpose and the defect
can be closed.
Thanks
Saurav

> Key: CLOUDSTACK-3471
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-3471
> Project: CloudStack
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: pre-4.0.0, 4.0.0, 4.1.0
> Reporter: Prasanna Santhanam
> Fix For: Future

> With the job-id in the logs having no link to the external world that is
> interacting with the cloudstack API it is not easy to correlate a failure with
> a specific job.
> With the inclusion of uuids in the management server logs it would be nice to
> provide an API extractJobLog that takes a jobid = <uuid> as parameter so as to
> extract all log statements of the job. This will be an admin only API and
> ideally a plugin that can be turned off in favour of better log
> monitoring/analyis systems.
> Having the log makes is useful to link our automated test failures with the
> log
> from the management server using a simple API call.
