### Enabling Load Balancer Logging

The load balancer plug-in logs the following information:

- Request start/stop information for every request.

- Failed-over request information when the request fails over from an unhealthy instance to a healthy instance.

- List of unhealthy instances at the end of every health check cycle.

Note - When load balancer logging is enabled, and if the web server logging level is set to `DEBUG` or to print verbose messages, the load balancer writes HTTP session IDs in the web server log files. Therefore, if the web server hosting the load balancer plug-in is in the DMZ, do not use the `DEBUG` or similar log level in production environments.

If you must use the `DEBUG` logging level, turn off load balancer logging by setting `require-monitor-data` property to `false` in `loadbalancer.xml`.
