First of all, thanks for these excellent tutorials. Pulling information out of Discord is like trying to meditate in the middle of a riot.

I had a couple of suggestions for your section on logging, which I discovered by accident on my own solana journey.
First of all, you can silence a lot of the noise by the use of the environment variable
export RUST_LOG=WARN
It is set to INFO by default, so setting it to WARN only gives you a fraction of the log entries.

Secondly, when I was setting this up myself, I used the "--log -" option to output logs to STDOUT, and I'd run my script under screen, so I could duck in and out by detaching and reattaching to the screen session.
Now the interesting bit. When I used your guide to turn my start script into a systemd service, I found that now the logging was going to the systemd log, and can be viewed with journalctl -u solana. A bonus of this is you can then use /etc/systemd/journald.conf to limit the log size to a certain number of days, MB, GB, etc. So your logs are easy to control without logrotate.

Hope you find this of interest.

YOU ARE SO SO AMAZING

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
