Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-2287:
--------------------------------------

bq. I'd very strongly prefer we use the POSIX logger and let the syslogd, 
journald, or equivalent deal with log management for anything outside of the 
log4j logs

I think I missed this point of this comment. I thought you were saying that we 
could use logger as a bridge to support our .out/.err files _as well as_ 
support writing to syslog. Replacing the out/err files is not the intent of 
this change, and, as such, I do not intend to do it. 

> Logs are overwritten upon restart

> When a server is restarted, then it overwrites the contents of the .out and 
> .err files. This makes it more difficult to debug failures if you have 
> something like puppet or supervisord ensuring that your processes are always 
> running. We should figure out how to roll the files instead.
