Explanation

Console (B) is correct because the Console appender writes to the standard output stream (stdout), which application servers like IBM WebSphere automatically redirect to their SystemOut.log file - making it the standard mechanism for capturing log output in that environment.

The distractors are all file-based rotation appenders: Rolling (A) writes to a separate file and rolls it when it reaches a size limit, Daily Rolling (C) creates a new file each day, and Monthly Rolling (D) rotates by month - none of these write to the server's built-in SystemOut.log.

Memory tip: Think "Console → System Out" - just as typing in a console prints to your screen's standard output, the Console appender sends output to stdout, which the app server captures as SystemOut.log. The word "console" itself is your hint.
