Description of problem: log level of creating networks/bridges events on host should be info currently events of creating vlans/bridges ... by nova-compute are in debug level it should be changes into info level Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. change nova.conf to debug=true 2. create new network and launch VM ( to create the bridge ) 3. check brctl / ip addr commands are viewed under /var/log/nova/compute.log with Info level Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
This is a feature request, and we're in feature freeze upstream, and Perry said not to do this downstream-only and create divergence, so this needs to wait until upstream reopens for feature changes. So 3.0.
4.0 because Grizzly is feature-frozen. I'll do this upstream for Havana.
The oslo patch is https://review.openstack.org/#/c/40872/ Once that gets in, I can drop the nova patch that depends on it. (I can't just change LOG.debug to LOG.info because the logging is actually inside a library that comes from oslo.)
The oslo patch got in. 2548344ec64 I need to merge it into nova, and then I can do the actual logging level patch.
The oslo patch was merged to nova in 599af3570a The patch to use INFO rather than debug for brctl and significant 'ip addr' commands is https://review.openstack.org/#/c/42689/ I also created a launchpad bug for this, which is in the External Tracker field.
This got a -1 upstream as creating too much noise in the logs. Looks unlikely to get in, unless someone makes a strong evidence-based argument for it in Gerrit.
This got a -2 upstream. Not because of a problem with the code, but because two core reviewers think it's too much noise in the logs. So you have to continue to set the loglevel to DEBUG manually in nova.conf. Setting to WONTFIX.
