Harsh J commented on HADOOP-1860: --------------------------------- I do not see what the merits of this would be. It would only slow things down. IMHO, logging is best left to non distributed FSes for being better that way. > I'd like a log4j appender that can write to a Hadoop FileSystem > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1860 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1860 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: fs > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Attachments: hadoop-log4j.zip > > > It would be convenient to be able to write log files to HDFS and other file > systems directly. For large clusters, it will produce too many files, but for > small clusters it should be usable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
