Hello, I recently upgraded HBase from 1.3.2 to 2.3.5 in an environment and the logging is not working properly. I've configured the logging to go to /var/log/hbase/hbase.log yet the log messages are going to syslog. Looking at the process, it does show the log configuration is set correctly:
opt/java/oracle/jre1.8.0_271/bin/java -Dproc_master -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=kill -9 %p -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled -XX:-ResizePLAB -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100 -XX:ParallelGCThreads=6 -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -Xloggc:/extra/gc.out -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Xmx768m -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=10102 -Dhbase.log.dir=/var/log/hbase -Dhbase.log.file=hbase.log -Dhbase.home.dir=/opt/hbase-2.3.5 -Dhbase.id.str= -Dhbase.root.logger=INFO,RFA -Djava.library.path=/opt/hbase-2.3.5/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64 -Dhbase.security.logger=INFO,RFAS org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMaster start In another environment in which I have HBase 1.3.2 installed, the logging is going to the correct location /var/log/hbase/hbase.log. What has changed in HBase 2.3.5 to cause the logging to behave this way? Thanks
