Charlie Sharpsteen created an issue   PuppetDB / PDB-3884 Improve default logging configuration for PuppetDB Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2018/03/26 12:20 PM Priority: Major Reporter: Charlie Sharpsteen The default logback configuration bundled with the puppetdb and pe-puppetdb packages can be improved by: Updating the configuration to no longer require a service restart or reload in order for changes to be picked up (TK-426). Formatting timestamps in application logs to include the time zone in order to enable debugging of geographically distributed installations (PE-13490). These changes will allow DEBUG logging to be enabled without requiring a restart or reload that may destroy application state and improve the usefulness of log data from installations that span multiple time zones. Recommendations: Logback configuration should include scanPeriod="60 seconds" to allow log levels and other settings to be adjusted without requiring service restarts or reloads. Logback patterns for application logs should use a RFC 3339 compatible representation that includes the Time Zone. A Java SimpleDateFormat that works with logback is: %d{yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSXXX} Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
