Configure Ambari logging level

You can set the level at which Amabari Server and Ambari Agents create log files that record cluster operations activity.

  1. Using a command line editor on the Ambari Server host, browse to /etc/ambari-server/conf/log4j.properties.
  2. Modify the logging level for Ambari Server by editing ambari-server.log.
  3. Using a command line editor on the Ambari Agent host, browse to /etc/ambari-agent/conf/ambari-agent.ini .
  4. Modify the logging level for each Agent by editing loglevel

    You can also modify these locations. Generally, you should also consider setting log-rotate policies for your systems. Refer to your operating system documentation for more information on setting up log-rotate in your environment.
