Stefan Groschupf updated HADOOP-1860:
-------------------------------------
Attachment: hadoop-log4j.zip
I worked a little on that, though I never finished completely it, however it
kind of works. Anyhow if someone ever stumble over this issue I though it
might be helpful to provide my code as starting point. The problem that is
unsolved is the chicken egg problem, you need a running hdfs to write logs
during startup. So you could use the appender and configure it to write into a
log HDFS that already runs.
However please be warned, writing logs into hdfs significant slows down hadoop!
> I'd like a log4j appender that can write to a Hadoop FileSystem

> It would be convenient to be able to write log files to HDFS and other file
> systems directly. For large clusters, it will produce too many files, but for
> small clusters it should be usable.
