Re: [sipX-dev] Configuring log levels
I'm not a developer of Sipx nor do I know just what all the
repercussions can be with logging piling up, but I'd like to share
something related that happened to me with our monitoring system. I
needed to shut off certain logging on it as I was getting so many emails
I couldn't sort out what was new while a problem was being worked on. I
have run into other logging situations where I've needed to shut off
logging temporarily as well, but can't think of it off hand.
The point is, you never know when this may be needed. In IT I've learned
to never say never... My suggestion is to allow shutting it off, but put
the default at Error.... I don't think you'll hurt anything by allowing
it to be shut off if needed.

Subject: [sipX-dev] Configuring log levels
At present, the sipXconfig UI allows logging levels to be changed to any
level. I don't believe that there is any circumstance under which we
should support setting logging to any less logging than 'ERROR' level -
at that level, logs should be pretty small under all but the worst
conditions, and then you'll really need them.
