Hi,
Don't re-configure.  Programatically traverse the logger and/or appender
tree to set properties you want.  Not all properties are reset-able at
runtime.  

For example, to change the logger level at runtime:

private static void changeLoggerLevel(String fqcn, String level)
{
  if((fqcn == null) || (level == null))
    return;
  
  Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(fqcn);
  logger.setLevel(Level.toLevel(level));
}

I omitted exception handling code from the above, and I'm assuming
you're using the standard logger name = class (or package) name
convention.  FQCN stands for fully-qualified class name, but is a bit of
a mis-nomer as the above will work for a package as well.
