["Alexandre Rafalovitch (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8232?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14993657#comment-14993657 ] 

Alexandre Rafalovitch commented on SOLR-8232:
---------------------------------------------

/dev/null is a bit drastic, but it should be possible to configure log4j to log vast majority to a rotating file.

> The bin/solr script, when started with bin/solr start, uses this command to start Solr:
> {code} nohup "$JAVA" "${SOLR_START_OPTS[@]}" $SOLR_ADDL_ARGS -jar start.jar \
>         "-XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=$SOLR_TIP/bin/oom_solr.sh $SOLR_PORT $SOLR_LOGS_DIR" "${SOLR_JETTY_CONFIG[@]}" \
>         1>"$SOLR_LOGS_DIR/solr-$SOLR_PORT-console.log" 2>&1 & echo $! > "$SOLR_PID_DIR/solr-$SOLR_PORT.pid"
> {code}
> This sends console output to stdout, with no means of rotating the log file, meaning it will eventually fill the drive unless restarted.
> I would propose that stdout be written to dev/null and we use proper means for handling logging, which can do proper log rotation as configured by the user.
