Please don't top-post on technical lists.
However, same reply applies to you. Check your log_level and
log_filters settings. I just installed fresh server and looking at the
libvirtd.conf, VDSM properly configured it to have also:
log_filters="1:libvirt 3:event 3:json 1:util 1:qemu"
where "3:event 3:json" gets rid of a lot unnecessary messages (but
beware, it depends on the order in which those directives are
specified). You can also have a look at what we discussed about in Bug
920614 [1], where you might find interesting settings for that as well.
There is also link to the Gerrit tracker, where the issue is tracked
[2] as well.
Logs should also be rotated. In case there is no logrotate daemon or no
rules for it, that may be another point of failure.
