How can I change the ActiveMQ Broker's logging configuration at runtime without having to restart the broker?
Resolution
Using JMX you can tell the broker to reload its logging configuration at runtime.
Simply follow these steps (assuming the Broker is already running):
- Make the necessary changes to your Broker's logging configuration in conf/log4j.properties
- Connect to the Broker using jconsole
- Drill into the org.apache.activemq context
- Select the Broker Mbean
- Select Operations
- Click the ReloadLog4jProperties operation
The broker will reload and reinitialize its logging configuration.
