Unable to prevent heat from logging to stdout without all heat proccesses logging to the same file

[Cody A.W. Somerville]

If log_file is not set, oslo will output logs to stdout even if log_dir is set. If log_file is set, all heat proccesses will log to the same file.

Hmm, is this invalid as indicated in the status? Or valid as indicated by the rc1 assignment?

[Cody A.W. Somerville (cody-somerville)]

Oops. Yes, the bug is valid.

Updated bug status.

    Don't log to stdout when log_dir is set

    In addition to checking if log_file is set, we should check
    for log_dir as well. Previously, If log_file is not set, oslo
    will output logs to stdout even if log_dir is set. The only way
    for example the Heat folks avoided logging to stdout was to
    set log_file, but then all the heat processes ended up logging
    to the same file. So a check for both log_dir and log_file
    should avoid any output to stdout. Please note that use_stderr
    should be set to false as well to avoid any output to console

Is there still a change required to heat for this?

[Steve Baker (steve-stevebaker)]

Cody, is this still an issue? Are their heat changes required to use the oslo changes?
