Hello,

There is a logging override in almost all openstack packages, for example in nova:

https://opendev.org/openstack/rpm-packaging/src/branch/stable/victoria/openstack/nova/openstack-nova.defaultconf

It lands in /etc/nova/nova.conf.d/010-nova.conf as stated in the spec:

https://opendev.org/openstack/rpm-packaging/src/branch/stable/victoria/openstack/nova/nova.spec.j2#L407

Let's assume following scenario: in kolla-ansible based deployment I want to disable logging globally using /etc/kolla/config/global.conf:

[DEFAULT]
log_dir =
log_file =

For kolla images built from RPMs, the file '/etc/nova/nova.conf.d/010-nova.conf' will override what I want to achieve by global.conf.

We have a situation when kolla images log inside the container into '/var/log/nova' where there is no log rotation. There is no easy way to change that in kolla-ansible based deployments.

Is there any specific reason why default logging has been hardcoded like that? Can we agree to change that situation to be able to override logging as expected?
