I am trying to read the container logs through fluentd and pass it to the elastic search. I have mounted the directories from the host onto fluentd container which include all symlinks and actual files. But when I see the fluentd container logs , it say those logs, present under /var/log/pods/ are unreadable. Then I manually navigated to the path under fluentd container where logs are present but unfortunately I got permission denied issue. I went till /var/lib/docker/containers , then the permissions were 0700 and owner was root. Even I am trying to run my fluentd container by setting
- name: FLUENT_UID value: "0" But still it is not able to read.

volumes: - name: varlog hostPath: path: /var/log/ - name: varlibdockercontainers hostPath: path: /var/lib/docker/containers

..... volumeMounts: - name: varlog mountPath: /var/log/ - name: varlibdockercontainers mountPath: /var/lib/docker/containers
