Starting with Pacemaker 2.0.0, the Pacemaker detail log will be kept by default in /var/log/pacemaker/pacemaker.log (rather than /var/log/pacemaker.log). This will keep /var/log cleaner.
Pacemaker will still prefer any log file specified in corosync.conf. The initial proposal, after discussion at last year's summit, was to use /var/log/cluster/pacemaker.log instead. That turned out to be slightly problematic: it broke some regression tests in a way that wasn't easily fixable, and more significantly, it raises the question of what package should own /var/log/cluster (which different distributions might want to answer differently). So instead, the default log locations can be overridden when building pacemaker. The ./configure script now has these two options: --with-logdir Where to keep pacemaker.log (default /var/log/pacemaker) --with-bundledir Where to keep bundle logs (default /var/log/pacemaker/bundles, which hasn't changed) Thus, if a packager wants to preserve the 1.1 locations, they can use: ./configure --with-logdir=/var/log And if a packager wants to use /var/log/cluster as originally planned, they can use: ./configure --with-logdir=/var/log/cluster --with- bundledir=/var/log/cluster/bundles and ensure that pacemaker depends on whatever package owns /var/log/cluster. -- Ken Gaillot <kgail...@redhat.com> _______________________________________________ Users mailing list: Users@clusterlabs.org http://lists.clusterlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/users Project Home: http://www.clusterlabs.org Getting started: http://www.clusterlabs.org/doc/Cluster_from_Scratch.pdf Bugs: http://bugs.clusterlabs.org
