the lisa-logs resource is reactivated in an mtaext override; it is inactive by default
When reactivated, the lisa-logs resource binds the deployed application to the BTP logging service.
“lisa-connectivity and lisa-logs are declared `active: false` below, so these two `requires` are IGNORED by the deploy service by default (an inactive resource silently drops every `requires` that points at it).”

- From Application Logging to Cloud Logging: Service Innovation GuideFrom Application Logging to Cloud Logging: Service Innovation GuideSAP Cloud Logging replaces SAP Application Logging service, moving each customer from a shared multitenant stack to a dedicated, fully isolated one, and this guide sets out what changes with the move: a deployment per compliance region instead of per Cloud Foundry landscape, SAML/IDP-based authentication instead of Cloud Foundry-bound auth, retention that is configurable instead of fixed at seven days, and hourly capacity-unit pricing instead of fixed-size monthly plans. It also states the deprecation timeline for logging on BTP: SAP Application Logging closes to new or renewed CPEA contracts after 2025-07-31, while contracts signed before that date keep their entitlement until their next renewal.Hariharan-Gandhi, published 2024-11-22Hariharan-Gandhi, SAP Community
