That actually creates the same logger. You will want to do something like
the following. Yes, you can use a properties file to configure the
appender.
loggerConsole = Logger.getLogger(LogTest.class);
//do nothing... by default it will go to File Appender
loggerTivoli = Logger.getLogger("notify." + LogTest.class.getName());
Then in your properties file send all loggers that start with "notify" to
your other appender.
