Hi Josip,

thanks for the information and closing this wishlist-item. The 
XENCONSOLED_ARGS= is exactly what I was looking for.

I don't think logging should be enabled by default, as it could 
potentially be a way for misbehaving guests to unexpectedly fill up your 
hypervisors disk space.

But I think xenconsoled should have a manual page to document the 
options which can be used. Running /usr/lib/xen-4.0/bin/xenconsoled 
--help does list the options, but does not explain them.

It would probably be nice to include some documentation in 
/usr/share/doc/xen-utils-4.0/README.Debian about this, the logrotate 
example could be included there as well.

I'll open a new bug against xen-utils-4.0, providing some documentation 
that could be included in README.Debian.
