[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-494) Timestamped GC logs in domain mode

[James Livingston (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-494?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13031125#comment-13031125 ] 

James Livingston commented on WFCORE-494:
-----------------------------------------

Two possible solutions come to mind are setting some variables when processing the options for individual server starts, such as $SERVER_START_TIMESTAMP for this use case, or adding a <gc-logging> element to the JVM configuration which abstracts across the JVM-specific details (and supports timestamps in file names).

> In standalone mode, you can add "-Xloggc:gc.log.`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`" (or Windows equivalent batch scripting) to have timestamped GC logs which is useful to prevent them from being overwritten when a server is restarted. This does not work in domain mode, since JBoss obviously does not process the back-ticks like a shell interpreter.
> It would be useful to be able to get time-stamped gc logs in domain mode.
