The journal stores the same (and more) -information as classic syslog. To make use of the journal and access -the collected log data simply invoke "journalctl", which will output -the logs in the identical text-based format the syslog files in -@VARLOGDIR@ used to be. For further details, please refer to -journalctl(1). - -Alternatively, consider installing one of the traditional syslog -implementations available for your distribution, which will generate -the classic log files for you. Syslog implementations such as -syslog-ng or rsyslog may be installed side-by-side with the journal -and will continue to function the way they always did. - -Thank you! - -Further reading: - man:journalctl(1) - man:systemd-journald.service(8) - man:journald.conf(5) - http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/the-journal.html |
