[jira] [Commented] (LOG4NET-332) I'm looking for the ability to set up a hierarchy of appenders, if a log to an ADONETAppender fails, log4net could then log to one of more "back-up" appenders

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-332?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13251210#comment-13251210 ] 

Ron Grabowski commented on LOG4NET-332:
---------------------------------------

If the AdoNetAppender fails and you switch over to a RollingFileAppender...when do you switch back to the original appender? If/when you switch back to the original appender do you try to re-send captured events? If you want to know if an appender failed you could write a IErrorHandler that sends an email. You could also write a ForwardingAppender that keeps track of a single active appender and rolls to the next one if the first one fails.
