You can collect pgpool container logs using other
log collector tools, such as Fluentd.

If you use syslog instead of stderr, you need to start syslog service in container.
If you are using Pgpool-II 4.2.x, I suggest you use the pgpool build-in log collector
and save the logs in the specified files.

In this case, you may need to use PVC/PV for data persistence.
