Is there anyway to propagate all kubernetes events to google cloud log?
For instance, a pod creation/deletion or liveness probing failed, I knew I can use kubectl get events in a console.
However, I would like to preserve those events in a log file in the cloud log with other pod level logs.
It is quite helpful information.
It seems that OP found the logs, but I wasn't able to on GKE (1.4.7) with Stackdriver. It was a little tricky to figure out, so I thought I'd share for others. I was able to get them by creating an eventer deployment with the gcl sink.
For example:
deployment.yaml
kind: Deployment
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
metadata:
labels:
k8s-app: eventer
name: eventer
namespace: kube-system
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
k8s-app: eventer
strategy:
rollingUpdate:
maxSurge: 1
maxUnavailable: 1
type: RollingUpdate
template:
metadata:
labels:
k8s-app: eventer
spec:
containers:
- name: eventer
command:
- /eventer
- --source=kubernetes:''
- --sink=gcl
image: gcr.io/google_containers/heapster:v1.2.0
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
resources:
limits:
cpu: 100m
memory: 200Mi
requests:
cpu: 100m
memory: 200Mi
terminationMessagePath: /dev/termination-log
restartPolicy: Always
terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 30Then, search for logs with an advanced filter (substitute your GCE project name):
resource.type="global"
logName="projects/project-name/logs/kubernetes.io%2Fevents"
