LOG Meeting Minutes 2018-03-06



Michael away for a customer demo trip

must do OOM-740: Add Standardized Configuration to LOGClosed

From Luke (moved from 2018-04-06 page

Notes:

  • Quick meeting in Michael's absence. 

  • Stepped through the canonicalized multi-appender logback config:

    • Appenders for Beats, EELF, and (human-readable) console. 

    • Parameters extracted to the top: rollover, component/subcomponent names, paths, etc. 

    • Parameters are the candidates for Helm templating:

      • So they'd come from values.yaml. 

      • And the rest of the doc would be boilerplate in many cases.  

    • 220+ lines. So it's far from small, even at its most minimal. (Most instances will have additional logger → level mappings). 

    • To forward templated config to Dave and Lee to review with EELF stakeholders.  

  • A session to review Beijing guidelines was requested:

    • (Really sorry, but I didn't catch who asked. It was somebody with an AT&T ID as their zoom handle).

    • Specifically regarding conventions. 

    • Semantics of tokens also mentioned, which we know still needs further clarification. .

    • Non-urgent. Can schedule during our next session.
