One of the more mundane, perhaps boring, but necessary administration tasks is checking system logs – the source of knowledge or intelligence of what is happening in the cluster.

In most cases, log messages are managed by a Syslog server. The Fedora project wants to take a new approach in future releases. This change is to come from systemd’s journal.
