Chapter 8. Configuring the OpenShift AI Operator logger
You can change the log level for OpenShift AI Operator components by setting the .spec.devFlags.logmode flag for the DSC Initialization/DSCI custom resource during runtime. If you do not set a logmode value, the logger uses the INFO log level by default.
The log level that you set with .spec.devFlags.logmode applies to all components, not just those in a Managed state.
The following table shows the available log levels:
| Log level | Stacktrace level | Verbosity | Output | Timestamp type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| WARN | INFO | Console | Epoch timestamps |
|
| ERROR | INFO | JSON | Human-readable timestamps |
|
| ERROR | INFO | JSON | Human-readable timestamps |
Logs that are set to devel or development generate in a plain text console format. Logs that are set to prod, production, or which do not have a level set generate in a JSON format.
Prerequisites
-
You have admin access to the
DSCInitializationresources in the OpenShift cluster. -
You installed the OpenShift command line interface (
oc) as described in Get Started with the CLI.
Procedure
- Log in to the OpenShift as a cluster administrator.
-
Click Operators
Installed Operators and then click the Red Hat OpenShift AI Operator. - Click the DSC Initialization tab.
- Click the default-dsci object.
- Click the YAML tab.
In the
specsection, update the.spec.devFlags.logmodeflag with the log level that you want to set.apiVersion: dscinitialization.opendatahub.io/v1 kind: DSCInitialization metadata: name: default-dsci spec: devFlags: logmode: development- Click Save.
You can also configure the log level from the OpenShift CLI by using the following command with the logmode value set to the log level that you want.
oc patch dsci default-dsci -p '{"spec":{"devFlags":{"logmode":"development"}}}' --type=mergeVerification
-
If you set the component log level to
develordevelopment, logs generate more frequently and include logs atWARNlevel and above. -
If you set the component log level to
prodorproduction, or do not set a log level, logs generate less frequently and include logs atERRORlevel or above.
8.1. Viewing the OpenShift AI Operator log
- Log in to the OpenShift CLI.
Run the following command:
oc get pods -l name=rhods-operator -o name -n redhat-ods-operator | xargs -I {} oc logs -f {} -n redhat-ods-operatorThe operator pod log opens.
You can also view the operator pod log in the OpenShift Console, under Workloads > Deployments > Pods > redhat-ods-operator > Logs.
