how to modify the log level kubernetes stdout in API gateways 10.1.0

[carlospimentel]

HI all ,

I am trying to modify the log level of what is send in the stdout of the container.

I have the API gateways 10.1 running in Kubernetes.

I got fluent-bit as deamonset capturing the stdout logs of the container. but is seen to be that policies are writing over 500 lines of logs.

I have tried to applying a configmap with the example here:

apim-charts/values.yaml at 10c3564a266b07cff07c875a0e9b82d81adf93b6 · CAAPIM/apim-charts

Enriched Logging in JSON Format

but I can only manage is to change the format of the logs to json, changing the value to SEVERE doesn't seen to make any effect.

I have also trying the CWP. 

log.levels

with the values

com.l7tech.level = CONFIG
com.l7tech.server.policy.variable.ServerVariables.level = SEVERE
com.l7tech.external.assertions.odata.server.producer.jdbc.GenerateSqlQuery.level = SEVERE
com.l7tech.server.policy.assertion.ServerSetVariableAssertion.level = SEVERE
com.l7tech.external.assertions.comparison.server.ServerComparisonAssertion = SEVERE

and also

log.stdoutLevel = SEVERE

and nothing  take effect. 

If you have any suggestion please let me know. 

Every time I do a change I restart the API gateways and check that the new values are there. 

Thank you

Carlos

Hello Lalit,

You should be able to set the log level with this system.property.

HI Lalit,

We sorted the issue in fluent-bit applying filters to the logs before is been send to our log platform.
Also in the api side the logging part was also reduce, and with the possibility to trigger maximum logging when needed. 

At the time I tested this about two years ago, the change in CWP never took effect.
