Subject: Re: system vm disk space issue in ACS 4.3

The problem appears to be the start function in the /etc/init.d/cloud service 
for console proxy.
More specifically the following line also writes to /var/log/cloud.out

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(cd $CLOUD_COM_HOME/systemvm; nohup ./run.sh > /var/log/cloud/cloud.out
2>&1 & )
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

since run.sh calls _run.sh and both has "set -x" enabled, in certain situations 
they can keep logging messages to cloud.out without being aware of the settings 
in log4j-cloud.xml


One way to fix that could be that run.sh and _run.sh would log to cloud.out 
only if a debug flag was set to true, otherwise only the java process would 
write to cloud.out and log4j would respect the settings in log4j-cloud.xml


Thanks
Saurav
