Hi, Check out Chukwa: http://hadoop.apache.org/chukwa/docs/r0.3.0/design.html#Introduction It allows you to run agents which tail log4j output and send the data to collectors, which write the data to HDFS. thanks, Bill On Wed, Apr 21, 2010 at 3:43 AM, Dhanya Aishwarya Palanisamy < dhanya.aish

How to write log4j output to HDFS?

2010-04-21 Thread Dhanya Aishwarya Palanisamy
Hi, Has anyone tried to write log4j log file directly to HDFS? If yes, please reply how to achieve this. I am trying to create a appender. Is this the way? My necessity is to write logs to a file at particular intervals and query that data at a later stage. Thanks, Dhanya
