Setting the Cloudera Manager Agent Log Location
By default the Cloudera Manager Agent log is stored in /var/log/cloudera-scm-agent/.
If there is not enough space in that directory, you can change the location of the log file:
- Set the log_file property in the Cloudera Manager Agent configuration
file:
log_file=/opt/log/cloudera-scm-agent/cloudera-scm-agent.log
- Create log/cloudera-scm_agent directories and set the owner and group to cloudera-scm. For example, if the log is stored
in /opt/log/cloudera-scm-agent, do the following:
$ sudo su $ cd /opt $ mkdir log $ chown cloudera-scm:cloudera-scm log $ mkdir /opt/log/cloudera-scm-agent $ chown cloudera-scm:cloudera-scm log/cloudera-scm-agent
- Restart the Agent:
sudo service cloudera-scm-agent restart
