2017-05-15Default snmp to less verbose loggingMichele Baldessari1-0/+6
Currently we just use what puppet-snmp provides in terms of defaults. This means that currently every single snmp query gets logged with the following: May 15 10:51:30 centos.localdomain snmpd[5159]: Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:57799->[127.0.0.1]:161 May 15 10:51:30 centos.localdomain snmpd[5159]: Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:57799->[127.0.0.1]:161 May 15 10:51:32 centos.localdomain snmpd[5159]: Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:50566->[127.0.0.1]:161 The reason is that we use '-LS0-6d' as the default content for /etc/sysconfig/snmpd: https://github.com/razorsedge/puppet-snmp/blob/master/manifests/params.pp#L322 This default means that we are logging from 0 (LOG_EMERG) to 6 (LOG_INFO). The above messages bring nothing in a default installation and only spam the log files, so let's lower the upper log level to 5 (LOG_NOTICE) by default, so we properly do not see every single query in the logs. We add an option so the operator can still configure the desired log level via a Heat parameter. Change-Id: I8d3dfdb4d549cd27131346fc477755ad72313449
