Changing logging locations
Logging locations for DataStax Enterprise (DSE) are set at installation.
Generally, the default logs location is /var/log.
For example, /var/log/cassandra and /var/log/tomcat.
For details, see Default file locations for package installations and Default file locations for tarball installations.
You can also change logging locations with OpsCenter Configuration Profiles.
