monolog configuration in symfony and customization

I am working on a web app built using Symfony 2.6 and there are different configuration inside app/config folder. How do I know which one is being used. Inside app/config I see config.yml config_dev.yml config_prod.yml and the monolog entry I see in config_dev.yml and also in monolog_prod.yml. It is as below.

monolog:
handlers:
    main:
        type:         fingers_crossed
        action_level: error
        handler:      nested
    nested:
        type:  stream
        path:  "%kernel.logs_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log"
        level: debug
    console:
        type:  console

Now I want to use monolog to input some logs in a controller and put those logs separate form other logs. How can this be done?.

You know which one is used on your environment. If you are in dev mode you are using config_dev.yml merged with config.yml You can check it into your virtual host if the file is on app.php you are in prod mode, if the file points to app_dev.php you are in dev mode usually

To log into other files you can create a channel like this:

monolog:
    handlers:
        main:
            type:         fingers_crossed
            action_level: error
            handler:      nested
        your_handler:
            level:    debug
            type:     stream
            path:     '%kernel.logs_dir%/custom.log'
            channels: ['your_channel']
        nested:
            type:  stream
            path:  "%kernel.logs_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log"
            level: debug
        console:
            type:  console

And into your controller you can call it in this way:

$logger = $this->get('monolog.logger.your_handler');
$logger->debug('your custom message into your custom log file');
