> We have an environment parameter in IBM WAS 9 running JAVA 8 with a name of
> "level" and a value of "DEVL". This parameter is used by applications to
> detect the environment they are on and worked fine with log4j2.8.2.
> After upgraded to Log4j2.17.1, for some reason the Log4j2 grabs that
> parameter during the initialization, ignoring the settings in the log4j2.xml,
> and spills a _java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown level constant
> [DEVL]_ in the system log.
