========================================= Example Configuration File for ``nova`` ========================================= This sample configuration file demonstrates how the OpenStack compute service (nova) might be configured. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :prepend: # nova_sample.conf Two logger nodes are set up, ``root`` and ``nova``. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 1-2 Several handlers are created, to send messages to different outputs. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 4-5 And two formatters are created to be used based on whether the logging location will have OpenStack request context information available or not. A Fluentd formatter is also shown. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 7-8 The ``root`` logger is configured to send messages to the ``null`` handler, silencing most messages that are not part of the nova application code namespace. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 10-12 The ``nova`` logger is configured to send messages marked as ``INFO`` and higher level to the standard error stream. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 14-17 The ``amqp`` and ``amqplib`` loggers, used by the module that connects the application to the message bus, are configured to emit warning messages to the standard error stream. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 19-27 The ``sqlalchemy`` logger, used by the module that connects the application to the database, is configured to emit warning messages to the standard error stream. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 29-35 Similarly, ``boto``, ``suds``, and ``eventlet.wsgi.server`` are configured to send warnings to the standard error stream. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 37-53 The ``stderr`` handler, being used by most of the loggers above, is configured to write to the standard error stream on the console. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 55-58 The ``stderr`` handler uses the ``context`` formatter, which takes its configuration settings from ``oslo.config``. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 85-86 The ``stdout`` and ``syslog`` handlers are defined, but not used. The ``fluent`` handler is useful to send logs to ``fluentd``. It is a part of fluent-logger-python and you can install it as following. :: $ pip install fluent-logger This handler is configured to use ``fluent`` formatter. .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 75-78 .. literalinclude:: nova_sample.conf :language: ini :lines: 91-92
