Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-3450:
--------------------------------------

Sure, that's fine by me -- the "non-standardness" of our logging infrastructure 
setup has been pointed out as "awkward" before.

I'm just looking to make a small fix to prevent Audit from going to the 
application logs when the configuration has specifically said that auditing 
should be off.

Let's open a ticket specifically to track the above concerns since I imagine it 
will take some thought and consideration.

> Example logging configs should disable audit log to application log files

> The presence of an auditLog.xml file controls the "audit" log for incoming 
> clients, security operations, etc. Because a normal logger instance is used 
> for this purpose, it also gets dumped into the normal application log files 
> (e.g. $process_$host.[debug.]log).
> We should turn off the audit log in the generic_logger configuration and let 
> auditLog.xml create the log file specifically for audits when the user 
> configures it as such (as the audit log is intended to be off by default by 
> virtue of the example configuration files we generate).
