From Slack: a capability to allow creating/updating entries in the grouper loader log

could we get a “startup” and “shutdown” entry written to the loader log for loader/ws/ui/scim? happy to submit a jira.

you want the container event to write to the loader log? (edited)

Hmm. Good question. Hadn't thought about it more generically.

what were you talking about?

Just have the "app" do it on start/stop. The app itself really only knows if it cleanly stopped.

But I can appreciate what you suggested.

i think we need a new component in grouper that can log things to the database but im not sure cramming in the loader (aka daemon) logs is the way to go

but yes, file a jira, and we can capture that for however we implement it

I think I will yield to your good judgement.

i think we need to capture various optional things, startup and shutdown are some of those. i think it should log errors. maybe some things about the ui or ws. and mechanisms that limit the logging so it doesnt overlog, auto clean up, UI screens, notifications on errors, and doing this in another thread and batched so it doesnt slow anything down. what do you think?
