Set Cassandra logging location

I am using Cassandra 3.5 and I want Cassandra to put log-files into the /var/log/cassandra folder. I noticed that Cassandra uses logback as the logging backend and in the file conf/logback.xml the appenders are configured per default to create log files at the ${cassandra.logdir} directory. Where is this property set, and how can I best modify it to /var/log/cassandra. Is this even the right place for configuring the logging path or are there more "high-level" options to set?

Add this to cassandra-env.sh , and restart the service.:

JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Dcassandra.logdir=/yourdir/your_dir"

By the way, /var/log/cassandra, should be default (system.log)
