Log configuration for dynamic log paths

payal_bid — Wed, 24 Jan 2024 10:48:07 GMT

Hello,

We have application that has dynamic log path:

For Example: /app_log/docker_admin/containers/storage/overlay-containers/be776d2e8d3494076315c68c68a58cbcf36874126595f63094f831cc6c01a36f/userdata/ctr.log

where "be776d2e8d3494076315c68c68a58cbcf36874126595f63094f831cc6c01a36f" is the dynamic container id which is changing after each execution.

Please advise how we can implement custom log configuration for the above case in Dynatrace.

Thanks,

Payal

Hi @payal_bid

You may test:

/app_log/docker_admin/containers/storage/overlay-containers/#/userdata/ctr.log

let me know if it's works

Hi @gbaudart ,

We have tried the above combination but it didn't work.

Hi @gbaudart ,

Yeah, we have tried this too but it also didn't work.

Just to know, if you put the current containerID, does it work?
