1163671 – [RFE] Default corosync configuration should log to file

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jan Friesse 2014-11-13 09:24:24 UTC

Description of problem:
Currently, pcs generated config file doesn't contain logging to log file and only logging to syslog is configured. This is suboptimal, because both journald and syslogd has tendency to throw out messages what makes /var/log/messages unusable. 

Also there is no possibility to turn on debugging (debug or trace) using pcs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.9.135

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. generate corosync.conf using pcs

Actual results:

corosync.conf:
...
logging {                                                                       
  to_syslog: yes                                                                
} 
...

Expected results:

...
logging {
        to_logfile: yes
        logfile: /var/log/cluster/corosync.log
        to_syslog: yes
}
...
