4 - Send logs to a remote server

Information

Sending logs to a remote location is an excellent way to increase security (preventing log tampering) and improve your application error analysis. Jboss supports a syslog handler designed for this purpose.

Solution

Add the syslog handler in your logging subsystem:

<profile>
<subsystem ....>
<syslog-handler name="....">
....
</syslog>
</subsystem>
</profile>
