[Bro-Dev] clusterization issue: logger node vs manager node or both ?

[Aashish Sharma]

SO with the emergence of logging node, I am encoutering an issue with clusterization and was seeking feedback on whats a better way to do this.

Presently I have been using:

@if (( Cluster::is_enabled() && Cluster::local_node_type() == Cluster::MANAGER ) || ! Cluster::is_enabled())
@end if 

and events worker2manager_events and manager2worker_events. 

With logging node: 

I can surely do "Cluster::local_node_type() == Cluster::LOGGER" and then events logger2manager_events and logger2worker_events etc etc so on so forth. 

The issue I am facing is that to begin with I don't know if someone is only going to run manager only or if someone is going to run logger node as well, making 

the following clumsy: 

 - @if (( Cluster::is_enabled() && Cluster::local_node_type() == Cluster::MANAGER ) || ! Cluster::is_enabled())
 - if manager then use worker2manager and manager2worker events

OR 
 - @if (( Cluster::is_enabled() && Cluster::local_node_type() == Cluster::LOGGER) || ! Cluster::is_enabled())
 - if logger then user logger events ?


Any thoughts on how to handle existence or non-existence of logger node in a clusterization scheme ?
