Ok.... I know what was the issue. The log4j.property files from yarn and hdfs are actually written into the same file on the operating system. Thus I always overwrote my previous logstash appender with the name of the previous one. Giving distinct names to each logstash appender solved the issue. It is weird that these configs are split in Ambari though...

Thanks a lot anyways 😉 I will come back and post if I figure out the answer at some point

Thanks a lot for sharing your ideas @Chris Nauroth! Your ideas helped me a bit understanding the logging system here. I extended the hadoop-env template field in ambari with the following command: export HADOOP_ROOT_LOGGER="INFO,RFA,logstash"
This results in a namenode command call like this: /usr/jdk64/jdk1.8.0_60/bin/java -Dproc_namenode -Xmx1024m -Dhdp.version=2.3.4.0-3485 -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dhdp.version= -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dhdp.version= -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dhadoop.log.dir=/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs -Dhadoop.log.file=hadoop.log -Dhadoop.home.dir=/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop -Dhadoop.id.str=hdfs -Dhadoop.root.logger=INFO,RFA,logstash -Djava.library.path=:/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64:/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop/lib/native -Dhadoop.policy.file=hadoop-policy.xml -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dhdp.version=2.3.4.0-3485 -Dhadoop.log.dir=/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs -Dhadoop.log.file=hadoop-hdfs-namenode-i-fd561d77.log -Dhadoop.home.dir=/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop -Dhadoop.id.str=hdfs -Dhadoop.root.logger=INFO,RFA,logstash -Djava.library.path=:/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64:/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop/lib/native:/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64:/usr/hdp/2.3.4.0-3485/hadoop/lib/native -Dhadoop.policy.file=hadoop-policy.xml -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -server -XX:ParallelGCThreads=8 -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:ErrorFile=/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs/hs_err_pid%p.log -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -Xloggc:/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs/gc.log-201606150820 -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -Dhadoop.security.logger=INFO,DRFAS -Dhdfs.audit.logger=INFO,DRFAAUDIT -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError="/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-hdfs-namenode/bin/kill-name-node" -Dorg.mortbay.jetty.Request.maxFormContentSize=-1 -server -XX:ParallelGCThreads=8 -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:ErrorFile=/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs/hs_err_pid%p.log -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -Xloggc:/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs/gc.log-201606150820 -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -Dhadoop.security.logger=INFO,DRFAS -Dhdfs.audit.logger=INFO,DRFAAUDIT -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError="/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-hdfs-namenode/bin/kill-name-node" -Dorg.mortbay.jetty.Request.maxFormContentSize=-1 -server -XX:ParallelGCThreads=8 -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:ErrorFile=/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs/hs_err_pid%p.log -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -Xloggc:/mnt/storage/log/hadoop/hdfs/gc.log-201606150820 -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -Dhadoop.security.logger=INFO,DRFAS -Dhdfs.audit.logger=INFO,DRFAAUDIT -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError="/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-hdfs-namenode/bin/kill-name-node" -Dorg.mortbay.jetty.Request.maxFormContentSize=-1 -Dhadoop.security.logger=INFO,RFAS org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode As you can see hadoop.root.logger is set to logstash as supposed to be (even though it is in there twice, no idea why that is the case but I don't care for now). Still there a lot more loggers configured for whichever libs. e.g. security, audit and so on... I tried to modified these to log to logstash manually as well. So at somepoint all loggers had the logstash appender on them. But all in all nothing is being logged to logstash so far, even considering all changes and multiple tries... What is left?: 1. the state of hadoop logging (at least when using HDP) is kind of a mess. Switching loggers is horribly hard and confusing. 2. Can anyone tell me which of the acutal conf files on the server is actually written when changing the properties in Ambari? is it: /etc/hadoop/conf || /etc/hadoop/2.3.4.0-3485/0 ? 3. Any other ideas why the namenode still does not log anything to logstash?

We are using logstash as centralized storage location for all our logs, including the hadoop logs. So far we manged to change log4j in most components to send logs to our logstash cluster additionally. (This includes Kafka, Hive, Ambari, MapReduce2, Yarn etc etc...) Our approach was to add an additional log4j appender in the components log4j.properties file and extend the root.logger with the given appender. We would have liked to exchange the log4j logger completely for a logback logger, but that includes a lot more work than living with the drawbacks of log4j is worth for now. (if someone has an easy idea how to solve this, I would be super grateful). My actual problem is, that this approach is not working with HDFS. For some reason the changes we apply in the hdfs - log4j.properties are neglected. (we use ambari webinterface to configure this.) The other appenders still work fine, but the logstash appender is being neglected completly. Do we have to consider any log4j settings in HDFS that do not exist for the other services? What bugs me is that all other services worked like a charm, just HDFS is blocking.... 😞 Thanks for any help in advance. Our setup: HDP: HDP-2.3.4.0-3485 HDFS: 2.7.1.2.3 hadoop.root.logger = INFO,RFA,logstash hdfs-log4j.properties #
