This support is needed to provide flexibility to the customer to save the logs wherever they want apart from the fixed or default location what we have now. ex: NFS share. external devices
There are plenty of ways, customers can post-process logs. In case they're using journald, the can use rsyslog, syslog, imjournal, logstash, symlinks or bind mounts to get the logs where ever they want to have them. In case they're logging to files, they can use rsync or symlinks to get the logs where ever they want to have them. If they're disabling the journald integration, they're loosing a lot of features and flexibility. I'd really like to avoid re-implementing journald here and this BZ here feels like an inferior workaround compared to the proper solution to their problem. What do you think?
@Sebastian, We have an option to redirect ansible logs in 4.x. Similarly we want atleast for cephadm log redirection to non default path. Daemon logs however,we have journald option to make use of it as you said.
