Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with intelligently gathering log messages are described. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes collecting, by a logging handler associated with a component, log messages according to two different granularities for logging messages. The two different granularities include a fine granularity and a coarse granularity. Collecting the log messages according to the fine granularity includes storing log messages in an incident buffer. The method includes, in response to detecting an error at the component, (i) freezing the incident buffer to preserve log messages present in the incident buffer, and (ii) communicating log messages that are collected according to the coarse granularity that are stored in a regular buffer to a logging appliance.
