Issue/Introduction

Verbose logs from the dataflow server, as shown below, can generate a lot of logs and get in the way of troubleshooting issues. This is logged by config-server’s client that is bundled in SCDF, this is the default behavior. It is possible to suppress these logs by disabling the config server client.

Resolution

From the user’s space / org where the data flow service instance was created, run the following command where dataflowSI is the dataflow service instance name:

cf t -o p-dataflow -s $(cf service dataflowSI --guid) 

You should now be in the space / org of the data flow backing app. Next, run the commands below.

cf set-env dataflow SPRING_CLOUD_CONFIG_ENABLED false

cf restage dataflow
