<logger category="org.ovirt" use-parent-handlers="false">
<level name="INFO"/>
and:
<logger category="org.ovirt" use-parent-handlers="false">
<level name="INFO"/>
and maybe:
<logger category="org.ovirt.engine.core.bll">
<level name="INFO"/>

This is doable by engineering request, per requested class names. If you have use cases we can consider adding these into the default service file, this belongs to bug#1017042 Closing this as not a bug as no problem in "engine.log log level can not be set" |
Description of problem: the only place where engine log level is mentioned is /usr/share/ovirt-engine/services/ovirt-engine/ovirt-engine.xml.in: <!-- Only the engine messages go here: --> <file-handler name="ENGINE" autoflush="true"> <level name="INFO"/> <formatter> <pattern-formatter pattern="%d %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/> </formatter> <file path="$getstring('ENGINE_LOG')/engine.log"/> <append value="true"/> </file-handler> but even when the level is changed to DEBUG, engine.log still shows only INFO and more severe log levels. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): is18 / rhevm-3.3.0-0.25.beta1.el6ev.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to configure rhev-m to log to engine.log with DEBUG priority 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
