How can I configure options on the SyslogHandler that aren't available via the CLI?

Issue

  • How can I configured the maximum length of a syslog message that the JBoss SyslogHandler will send?

  • I've configured the syslog handler as follows which works fine, but we have some SLF4J MDC parameters that we want to see as well. Is there an alternative to RFC5424 so that we can configure the log message itself?

    <syslog-handler name="SYSLOG">
    <level name="WARN"/>
    <server-address value="${syslog.host:localhost}"/>
    <hostname value="${env.HOSTNAME:appserver}"/>
    <app-name value="${syslog.appname:jboss}"/>
    <formatter>
        <syslog-format syslog-type="RFC5424"/>
    </formatter>
    <facility value="${syslog.facility:user-level}"/>
</syslog-handler>
