logfile - configures logging file

The logfile directive is deprecated for version 2.x configurations. Please enable the use_logd directive instead.

The logfile directive configures a log file. All non-debug messages from Heartbeat will go into this file.

A sample logfile directive is shown below:

logfile /var/log/ha-log

Caveats

Configuring a log file (instead of using syslog logging) can cause Heartbeat to block for several seconds under heavy load. This can affect the deadtime required for the system.
