Description Vasishta 2022-05-13 11:38:54 UTC

Describe the issue:
We need to add information about enabling log to file for rbd mirroring daemon.

Describe the task you were trying to accomplish:
redirect rbd-mirroring daemon logs to log file

Suggestions for improvement:
We can add a note mentioning that if user wants to redirect rbd-mirror daemon logs to log file which is the default case, user needs to execute following commands
# ceph config set global log_to_file true
# ceph config set global mgr/mirroring/log_to_file 1

Also to configure log rotate won't work on the log file that gets created. https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3523011 has more information on why it doesn't happen.
