+Client library logging
+======================
+
+By default the client library doesn't produce any logs and usually it's not
+needed as in most scenarios the client library doesn't do anything interesting.
+
+In case you want to get the client logs, logging is controlled via
+environment variables ``LIBVIRT_LOG_OUTPUTS`` and ``LIBVIRT_LOG_FILTERS``.
+Generally when client logs are needed don't filter them:
+
+::
+
+   export LIBVIRT_LOG_OUTPUTS="1:file:/tmp/libvirt_client.log"
