      Add the possibility to set Ident when logging to syslog. Reference http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/openlog.html#openlog

      It is possible to use --syslog --syslogFacility local3 when running mongod. It would be very nice to be able to use --syslogIdent myCustomNameOfMongodb

      Or if using yaml config:

      systemLog:
   destination: syslog
   syslogFacility: local3
   syslogIdent: myCustomNameOfMongodb
