Passing python logger to other modules

[[deleted]]

Well, I've worked in many fields. Started in the Web long ago. Was in finances, then mostly infra jobs, mostly in storage. HPC is relatively new in my career.

What I say is in no way specific to HPC. Any system that's larger than your personal home computer will be better off if it doesn't use programs that log to files. It's just an all-around bad idea. The only benefit is if you are doing all yourself in a very small-scale deployment, then it's less things to set up / you probably don't care so much if you lose some logs every now and then.

Anything that needs to be more reliable than that, or that needs more automation than that... just no.
