Description

DAOS_LOGGING controls how verbosely the DAOS subsystem code logs its activities to console.log and log.nsf. This includes NLO creation and deletion, resync runs, and consistency and garbage collection checks.
In normal operation, the default value is sufficient. For diagnosing problems with DAOS storage locations, missing NLOs, or faulty resyncs, higher levels are very helpful.

Example configuration

DAOS_LOGGING=2

Notes & pitfalls

  • Higher levels produce noticeably more log volume – enable only temporarily.
  • Level 3 is almost exclusively intended for HCL Support cases.
  • Works together with Console_Log_Enabled and Debug_Outfile.
  • Complemented by DAOS-specific console commands (tell daosmgr status, tell daosmgr resync).
  • The change takes effect immediately after a server console reload (restart server is not strictly necessary).
