dCache + logback syslog

dcache_logback_syslog

Add two entries into /etc/dcache/dcache.conf:

my.log.format.syslog=dcache: \\(%X{cells.cell}\\) [%X{org.dcache.ndc}] %m%n
my.log.host.syslog=syslog.server.ip.address
my.log.level.syslog=error


/etc/dcache/logback.xml:

Add an appender

  <appender name="SYSLOG" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.net.SyslogAppender">
      <syslogHost>${my.log.host.syslog}</syslogHost>
      <facility>USER</facility>
      <suffixPattern>${my.log.format.syslog}</suffixPattern>
  </appender>

Add the appender under root

  <root>
    <appender-ref ref="SYSLOG"/>
    <appender-ref ref="stdout"/>
    <appender-ref ref="pinboard"/>
    <appender-ref ref="remote"/>
  </root>

And under dummy

  <logger name="dummy" level="OFF">
    <appender-ref ref="SYSLOG"/>
    <appender-ref ref="stdout"/>
    <appender-ref ref="pinboard"/>
    <appender-ref ref="events"/>
    <appender-ref ref="remote"/>
  </logger>

And finally add a threshold (to make it work after restart):

    <threshold>
      <appender>SYSLOG</appender>
      <logger>root</logger>
      <level>${my.log.level.syslog}</level>
    </threshold>
