Increasing the OpenStack Keystone logging level

Resolving The Problem

The following instructions in the Setting logging levels topic is incorrect:
To increase the logging level for the OpenStack Keystone component, edit the /etc/keystone/keystone.conf file on Central Server 2 and change level=WARNING to level=DEBUG in the [logger_keystone] section. After changing the logging level, you must restart the Keystone component by running the service openstack-keystone restart command.

The correct instructions should be:

1. Modify the /etc/keystone/keystone.conf file on Central Server 2 so that it contains the following information:
   # Show more verbose log output (sets INFO log level output)
   verbose = True
   
   # Show debugging output in logs (sets DEBUG log level output)
   debug = True
   log_config = /etc/keystone/logging.conf
   
   
2. Modify the /etc/keystone/logging.conf file so that it contains the following information:
   [logger_keystone]
   level=DEBUG
   handlers=file
   qualname=keystone
   
   [handler_file]
   class=logging.handlers.WatchedFileHandler
   level=DEBUG  
   
   
3. Run the service openstack-keystone restart command.
