Configuring the System Level Logging
All logs are located in the /arroyo/log directory. The log files are rotated at least once a day and time
stamps are added to the filenames. Some log files that grow rapidly are rotated more frequently
(determined by file size); this rotation may happen up to once an hour. Most log files have the following
suffix: .log.<YYYYMMDD.> The time zone for log rotation and filename suffixes is coordinated
universal time (UTC). As part of the new log entry format, the log level and facility are included.
