We still see "Unknown parameters..." huge number of logs in server log. May be, we can make this as configurable or dump to some other log say misc log,
if mandatory params are not sent as per request, dump to the log and return, if arg types and arguments as per validation are wrong, then dump. But dumping every unknown param, real issues get lost with these huge log set rolling when debugging.

That’s what I have been saying from the beginning. IMHO, I don’t see much value in having this, but I am really concerned with the performance of the apis especially in production setups. For this reason can we please remove this worker or at the very least have a setting to not have it turned on by default ? -Nitin From: Antonio Fornié Casarrubios <antonio.for...@gmail.com<mailto:antonio.for...@gmail.com>> Date: Sunday 18 May 2014 4:22 PM To: cloudstack <dev@cloudstack.apache.org<mailto:dev@cloudstack.apache.org>> Cc: Nitin Mehta <nitin.me...@citrix.com<mailto:nitin.me...@citrix.com>> Subject: Re: seeing "Unknown parameters : ctxdetails" for addResourceDetail/removeResourceDetail If the parameter is correct then it should not be in the logs as unknown. And so it should be added to the worker in the list of parameters that the worker will never blame. That is the fix. Right? Perhaps it is not considered good that everytime a new parameter is added to the api requests it has to be included in the worker. In that case then perhaps it's better to just completely remove the worker itself.
