[ovirt-users] oVirt hosted engine agent and broker duplicate logs to syslog

[Aleksey Chudov]

Thank you for the answer.

So, currently there is at least three copy of agent and broker logs on
centos 7.2:
1. agent.log and broker.log files in /var/log/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/
directory
2. /var/log/messages file
3. journald database

Does errors additionally send to syslog according to agent-log.conf and
broker-log.conf files in /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine-ha/ directory?

It's a bit too much :) Do you plan to fix this duplication?

For example 2. and 3. can be quickly disabled by adding StandardOutput=null
option to unit file

[Service]
...
StandardOutput=null
