Hi,  
I’m trying to set the log level for the supervisor because it’s super chatty.  
I already tried to set it with `log level ERROR supervisor/supervisor` but that does not have any effect.

Is there anything I can try to make it less verbose?

Regards,  
Simon

I tried on normal application before:

```auto
log level INFO "UART_TCP_Demo1/UART_TCP_Demo1Component"
log level ERROR "UART_TCP_Demo1/UART_TCP_Demo1Component"

```

Maybe you can try the same on application first

It’s working fine on every other application I tested, but not the supervisor itself

How about using “logread” and “grep”
