This page collects debug tips for identifying common issues and improving the operator's reliability.
By the default the Operator's log format is console like you can see below:
2024-05-06T11:55:11+02:00 INFO setup Prometheus CRDs are installed, adding to scheme.
2024-05-06T11:55:11+02:00 INFO setup Openshift CRDs are not installed, skipping adding to scheme.
2024-05-06T11:55:11+02:00 INFO setup the env var WATCH_NAMESPACE isn't set, watching all namespaces
2024-05-06T11:55:11+02:00 INFO Webhooks are disabled, operator is running an unsupported mode {"ENABLE_WEBHOOKS": "false"}
2024-05-06T11:55:11+02:00 INFO setup starting managerIf it is necessary to customize the log format, so you can use one of the following parameters:
--zap-devel: Development Mode defaults(encoder=consoleEncoder,logLevel=Debug,stackTraceLevel=Warn). Production Mode defaults(encoder=jsonEncoder,logLevel=Info,stackTraceLevel=Error) (default false)--zap-encoder: Zap log encoding (one of 'json' or 'console')--zap-log-levelZap Level to configure the verbosity of logging. Can be one of 'debug', 'info', 'error', or any integer value > 0 which corresponds to custom debug levels of increasing verbosity--zap-stacktrace-levelZap Level at and above which stacktraces are captured (one of 'info', 'error', 'panic').--zap-time-encodingZap time encoding (one of 'epoch', 'millis', 'nano', 'iso8601', 'rfc3339' or 'rfc3339nano'). Defaults to 'epoch'.- The following parameters are effective only if the
--zap-encoder=json:zap-message-key: The message key to be used in the customized Log Encoderzap-level-key: The level key to be used in the customized Log Encoderzap-time-key: The time key to be used in the customized Log Encoderzap-level-format: The level format to be used in the customized Log Encoder
Running the Operator with the parameters --zap-encoder=json, --zap-message-key="msg", zap-level-key="severity",zap-time-key="timestamp",zap-level-format="uppercase" you should see the following output:
{"severity":"INFO","timestamp":"2024-05-07T16:23:35+02:00","logger":"setup","msg":"Prometheus CRDs are installed, adding to scheme."}
{"severity":"INFO","timestamp":"2024-05-07T16:23:35+02:00","logger":"setup","msg":"Openshift CRDs are not installed, skipping adding to scheme."}
{"severity":"INFO","timestamp":"2024-05-07T16:23:35+02:00","logger":"setup","msg":"the env var WATCH_NAMESPACE isn't set, watching all namespaces"}
{"severity":"INFO","timestamp":"2024-05-07T16:23:35+02:00","msg":"Webhooks are disabled, operator is running an unsupported mode","ENABLE_WEBHOOKS":"false"}
{"severity":"INFO","timestamp":"2024-05-07T16:23:35+02:00","logger":"setup","msg":"starting manager"}
