The Boot option for the node log query is not supported on Windows and
an error is returned if the option is set. Because of this, one of the
unit tests which sets the option fails, as it does not expect any errror.
Provide an administrator a streaming view of journal logs on Linux
systems using journalctl, and event logs on Windows systems using the
Get-WinEvent PowerShell cmdlet without them having to implement a client
side reader.
Only available to cluster admins.
The implementation for journald on Linux was originally done by Clayton
Coleman.
Introduce a heuristics approach to query logs
The logs query for node objects will follow a heuristics approach
when asked to query for logs from a service. If asked to get the
logs from a service foobar, it will first check if foobar logs to the
native OS service log provider. If unable to get logs from these, it
will attempt to get logs from /var/foobar, /var/log/foobar.log or
/var/log/foobar/foobar.log in that order.
The logs sub-command can also directly serve a file if the query looks
like a file.
