The more I work with production systems, the more I appreciate healthy logs. We've solved at least a dozen big issues this past year with "just scan the logs and rebuild the historical data, we can pretend like we were monitoring that issue the whole time".

You run debug level logging on prod?

[peteretep]

“debug level” and “prod level” logs are pretty arbitrarily drawn lines from organisation to organisation. If they’re intentionally running that logging level on prod, it’s prod level

Not the OP, but: kind of, yes. Enough logging for someone with access to the source code to stand a good chance of reverse engineering what happened (code trace) when something goes wrong, without having the user reproduce. This capability is built into the product and involves significant development effort in itself.
