ASF GitHub Bot commented on TS-3072: ------------------------------------ Github user sudheerv commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/350#issuecomment-161377617 Uri - I agree with your point in general as well, but, I think it's arguable whether to treat this as a *feature* that isn't needed in the core. I can say, with certainty, that a majority (if not all) of production deployments would be benefitted from this capability. Having this in the core (even in its simplest form) already provides a great benefit to them, in terms of simplicity in configuration and use. Having to deploy a plugin and maintain it's configuration separately only makes it more complicated and less easy to use for general operations. Fwiw, we also have a number of similar features (which could have all been done using plugins too) in the core that are used extensively by operations and plugin developers alike (e.g @ headers). > Debug logging for a single connection in production traffic. > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TS-3072 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3072 > Project: Traffic Server > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core, Logging > Affects Versions: 5.0.1 > Reporter: Sudheer Vinukonda > Assignee: Susan Hinrichs > Labels: Yahoo > Fix For: 6.1.0 > > Attachments: ts-3072.diff > > > Presently, when there's a production issue (e.g. TS-3049, TS-2983 etc), it is > really hard to isolate/debug with the high traffic. Turning on debug logs in > traffic is unfortunately not an option due to performance impacts. Even if > you took a performance hit and turned on the logs, it is just as hard to > separate out the logs for a single connection/transaction among the millions > of the logs output in a short period of time. > I think it would be good if there's a way to turn on debug logs in a > controlled manner in production environment. One simple option is to support > a config setting for example, with a client-ip, which when set, would turn on > debug logs for any connection made by just that one client. If needed, > instead of one client-ip, we may allow configuring up to 'n' (say, 5) > client-ips. > If there are other ideas, please comment. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
