How to Enable Asynchronous Logging with C5

In this post we are going to explore on how to enable asynchronous logging on C5 based servers. More on asynchronous logging can be found here.

1. Copy the disrupter dependency to the /osgi/plugins folder. You can get the disrupter OSGi bundle from here.
2. Edit launch.properties the /bin/bootstrap/org.wso2.carbon.launcher-5.1.0.jar and add the disrupter jar to the initial bundles list.
carbon.initial.osgi.bundles=\
  file\:plugins/org.eclipse.osgi.services_3.4.0.v20140312-2051.jar@1\:true,\
  file\:plugins/disruptor-3.2.0.jar@2\:true,\
  file\:plugins/org.ops4j.pax.logging.pax-logging-api_1.8.4.jar@2\:true,\
  file\:plugins/org.ops4j.pax.logging.pax-logging-log4j2_1.8.4.jar@2\:true,\
  file\:plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.1.0.v20131217-1203.jar@3\:true

3. Set the org.ops4j.pax.logging.log4j2.async to true in the pax logging parameters.

4. Add the async loggers to the log4j2.xml file

<Configuration>
    <Appenders>
 <RandomAccessFile name="RandomAccessFile" fileName="${sys:carbon.home}/logs/carbon.log" immediateFlush="false" append="false">
        <PatternLayout>
          <Pattern>[%d] %5p {%c} - %m%ex%n</Pattern>
        </PatternLayout>
     </RandomAccessFile>
        <Console name="CARBON_CONSOLE" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
            <PatternLayout pattern="[%d] %5p {%c} - %m%ex%n"/>
        </Console>
        
    </Appenders>
    <Loggers>

 <AsyncLogger name="com.foo.Bar" level="trace" includeLocation="true">
      <AppenderRef ref="RandomAccessFile"/>
    </AsyncLogger>

        <Root level="debug">
     <AppenderRef ref="RandomAccessFile"/>
            <AppenderRef ref="CARBON_CONSOLE"/>
        </Root>
    </Loggers>
</Configuration>

That's it now you have enabled the asynchronous logging with C5.
