Log4j logging file housekeeping

[Ravi Gupt]

Hi Guys,

I have a requirement that on each jboss server restart it should create a new myServer.log file and it should rename old file to myServer_DDMMYY_HHMMSS.log

for example: I have created a RollingFileAppender for myServer.log in jboss-log4j.xml, what changes should I do in this configuration so that it archives(renames) existing file and create a new myServer.log on each server re-start.


Thanks,
Ravi

Add some code to the startup script to do this; there is no Log4J configuration option that will do this for you.
