Description

Centralised logging capability.

This is an improvements to systemvm which allow Cloudstack administrator to access systemvms logs inside the management server. It removes the difficulty of downloading logs from systemvms. Logs are forwarded to the management server automatically, and administrators can access them in /var/log/rsyslog/%HOSTNAME%/syslog.

For more information visit the #4093 issue.

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)

How Has This Been Tested?

Created a Cloudstack environment with three KVM hypervisor and one management server. With this setup I can access systemvms logs in /var/log/rsyslog/%HOSTNAME%/syslog. Check attached screenshot.

@soreana I love this feature (#4093) but I am a bit worried about the implications for large scale installations. I see no way to configure the log server or to turn the feature off. Am i missing something?
