[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBTM-331) Reduce the log level of the periodic recovery stuff

Jonathan Halliday commented on JBTM-331:
----------------------------------------

See http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBTM-20?page=all for the backstory on this. We already downgrade this stuff from INFO to DEBUG when running integrated with the AS. The arjuna level won't be changed, so the options are to change the global rewriting of arjuna messages in AS from INFO->DEBUG to INFO->TRACE which will impact other messages too, or install a filter in log4j. Why is AS even logging at DEBUG by default? It should be INFO, at least for production releases.

> These messages ought to be at TRACE level.  The first hint is that this is the only thing spamming the log after successful startup.  Also on more than one occasion, folks pop into the public #jboss IRC channel asking about why their logs get spammed with these messages.  An otherwise idle JBossAS instance quietly gobbles 750kb of disk space a day with these messages.
