Redirecting RUM log

It would be useful to be able to redirect the RUM log, particularly on macOS.  Currently the log gets written to the current user’s Library/Logs folder (or root if RUM is being run from a script via MDM).  Enabling root just to be able to read/copy/move a log file seems terribly unwise from a security standpoint. 

 

Additionally, in the case of shared devices, one would need the ability to access each user’s Library/Logs folder.  Again, this seems terribly inefficient and needlessly cumbersome.  Being able to redirect the log to a common location such as a folder under Users/Shared would simplify accessing the log. 

 

I am not suggesting moving the default location of the log, simply perhaps adding a parameter to RUM that would allow the redirection to a desired location.

 

Thanks,
