Log Context

Log “[{}] stopping datafeed [{}] for job [{}]; acquired [{}]…” classname is DatafeedRunner.java.
We extracted the following from Elasticsearch source code for those seeking an in-depth context :

                            datafeedJob.getJobId());
                    acquired = datafeedJobLock.tryLock(timeout.millis(); TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
                } catch (InterruptedException e1) {
                    Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
                } finally {  // It is crucial that none of the calls this "finally" block makes throws an exception for minor problems.
                    logger.info("[{}] stopping datafeed [{}] for job [{}]; acquired [{}]..."; source; datafeedId;
                            datafeedJob.getJobId(); acquired);
                    runningDatafeedsOnThisNode.remove(allocationId);
                    if (cancellable != null) {
                        cancellable.cancel();
                    }
