Hello, On docker, log messages go to the console and are handled by the configured Docker logging driver. To access logs we need to run `docker logs $container_name`. I would like to change this behavior, and ask Elasticsearch to save logs into a specific path (same way if installed using RPM package for example) For this i mounted the config folder including `log4j2.properties` with the same config that come from the RPM or TAR archive, but still not able to get logs into files in the specific path. Any help please on this ? ```auto version: '3.9' services: es01: ... restart: always volumes: - './config:/usr/share/elasticsearch/config:rw' - 'es_certs:/usr/share/elasticsearch/config/certificates:ro' - 'es_snapshot:/usr/share/elasticsearch/snapshot:rw' - 'es_logs:/usr/share/elasticsearch/logs:rw' - 'es_data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data:rw' ``` ---

This is the output of `$ sudo docker logs es01` It seems that the docker image is ignoring my custom `log4j2.properties` ? ```auto [0.004s][warning][logging] Output options for existing outputs are ignored.

Log messages go to the console and are handled by the configured Docker logging driver. By default you can access logs with docker logs. If you would prefer the Elasticsearch container to write logs to disk, set the `ES_LOG_STYLE` environment variable to `file`. This causes Elasticsearch to use the same logging configuration as other Elasticsearch distribution formats. ---
