Hello all, I've recently been looking into various methods for configuring meaningful logging from my puppet 3.6 master/agent nodes. I've typically gone the route of grep'ing through syslog on both master/agents and I'd like something a little more robust and user friendly for other who may not be hip on going through hundreds of lines of syslog information in addition to a simpler design.
I've recently been playing with an agent's puppet.conf and simply trying to set the logdir using this with no success at all (permissions have been changed to allow puppet to write to that directory): [agent] logdir= /var/log/puppet I've also tested syslog facility configurations but after some time, it seemed like having to modify multiple configuration files to get puppet logging consistent, seems a bit bulky to me. I suppose I have two questions: 1. Is there a simple way to push messages to a file other than /var/log/syslog on an Ubuntu machine? 2. Is there a preferred way in the community by which people aggregate logs to make troubleshooting nodes issues easier to manage? Thank you all for your time in advance.
