They have different meaning. In ha.cf they are used by the
heartbeat itself, i.e. the heartbeat (cl_log) would write to
those file directly. Those in logd.cf are read by ha_logd.
Basically, if one says "use_logd yes" then logfile/debugfile
shouldn't be set in ha.cf and there'll be warning otherwise.

Yes.
