Hi, all Please just ignore what I have said.
I've retested the case again, the log4j did output logs even the resided JVM took more than 95% CPU. (I use infinite loop to make the JVM to takes most CPU of the OS) In fact, our application deploys total 7 JVMs. When the issue reported by our customer, I found that one of 7 JVMs took more than 90% CPU. After checking all debug logs, only the JVM with more than 90% CPU usage did not have any logs output...the other 6 worked well...the overal OS CPU idle is 0...that's why I suspected at the very begining that the high CPU usage is the root cause to make log4j not work. Rignt now, I'm wondering...that why my own simulation cannot reproduce the issue? It seems that the high CPU usage of JVM is not the real root cause of the problem...so...do you have any hints about the "not log output" issue of log4j? I'm quite frustrated... Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated. Arica wrote: > > Hi, buddies > > I deployed the log4j as the logging tool of my JVM.
