Minor Description
Currently the default diagnostic logging settings are as follows in proxy/mgmt2/RecordsConfig.cc :
- O stdout
- E stderr
- S syslog
- L diags.log
proxy.config.diags.output.diag E
proxy.config.diags.output.debug E
proxy.config.diags.output.status S
proxy.config.diags.output.note S
proxy.config.diags.output.warning S
proxy.config.diags.output.error SE
proxy.config.diags.output.fatal SE
proxy.config.diags.output.alert SE
proxy.config.diags.output.emergency SE
This means regular diagnostics will be logged to syslogd. It has been suggested that syslog logging be disabled due to syslogd locking up the system under heavy load. Instead by default and all diagnostic output go to stderr(E) where the output can be captured by TrafficCop in 'traffic.out'. A new configuration could possibly look like this:
proxy.config.diags.output.diag E
proxy.config.diags.output.debug E
proxy.config.diags.output.status E
proxy.config.diags.output.note E
proxy.config.diags.output.warning E
proxy.config.diags.output.error E
proxy.config.diags.output.fatal E
proxy.config.diags.output.alert E
proxy.config.diags.output.emergency E
