Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-12396:
-------------------------------------
We should also document what user-provided data might be included in log
messages (like keys in region ids) so downstream people can reason about the
protection level needed for them.
> Document suggested use of log levels in dev guide

> Key: HBASE-12396
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12396
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Minor
>
> Right now we don't provide any guidance on appropriate use of log levels,
> which leads to inconsistent use and in some cases exacerbating problems for
> tests and troubleshooting (see HBASE-12395). We should add a section on
> suggested use of log levels to the guide.
