Using distinct paths for GC and EAP server logs

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • One of our applications is suffering from long GC pauses likely due to the disk on which the GC logs are written being flooded by (other) IO.
  • As a workaround we would like to write the GC logs to a specific path (e.g. volatile memory) that is distinct from the JBOSS_LOG_DIR (where the EAP server logs are).

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Server (EAP) 7.1.4, standalone mode (refer to solution 269023 for GC logging in domain mode).
