Chapter 8. Updating cluster logging

After updating the OpenShift Container Platform cluster from 4.4 to 4.5, you can then update the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator and Cluster Logging Operator from 4.4 to 4.5.

Cluster logging 4.5 introduces a new Elasticsearch version, Elasticsearch 6.8.1, and an enhanced security plug-in, Open Distro for Elasticsearch. The new Elasticsearch version introduces a new Elasticsearch data model, where the Elasticsearch data is indexed only by type: infrastructure, application, and audit. Previously, data was indexed by type (infrastructure and application) and project.

Important

Because of the new data model, the update does not migrate existing custom Kibana index patterns and visualizations into the new version. You must re-create your Kibana index patterns and visualizations to match the new indices after updating.

Due to the nature of these changes, you are not required to update your cluster logging to 4.5. However, when you update to OpenShift Container Platform 4.6, you must update cluster logging to 4.6 at that time.

8.1. Updating cluster logging
Copier lien

After updating the OpenShift Container Platform cluster, you can update cluster logging from 4.5 to 4.6 by changing the subscription for the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator and the Cluster Logging Operator.

When you update:

  • You must update the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator before updating the Cluster Logging Operator.

  • You must update both the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator and the Cluster Logging Operator.

    Kibana is unusable when the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator has been updated but the Cluster Logging Operator has not been updated.

    If you update the Cluster Logging Operator before the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator, Kibana does not update and the Kibana custom resource (CR) is not created. To work around this problem, delete the Cluster Logging Operator pod. When the Cluster Logging Operator pod redeploys, the Kibana CR is created.

Important

If your cluster logging version is prior to 4.5, you must upgrade cluster logging to 4.5 before updating to 4.6.

Prerequisites

  • Update the OpenShift Container Platform cluster from 4.5 to 4.6.

  • Make sure the cluster logging status is healthy:

    • All pods are ready.
    • The Elasticsearch cluster is healthy.
  • Back up your Elasticsearch and Kibana data.

Procedure

  1. Update the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator:

    1. From the web console, click Operators Installed Operators.
    2. Select the openshift-operators-redhat project.
    3. Click the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator.
    4. Click Subscription Channel.
    5. In the Change Subscription Update Channel window, select 4.6 and click Save.

    6. Wait for a few seconds, then click Operators Installed Operators.

      The OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator is shown as 4.6. For example: 

      OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator
4.6.0-202007012112.p0 provided
by Red Hat, Inc

      Wait for the Status field to report Succeeded.

  2. Update the Cluster Logging Operator:

    1. From the web console, click Operators Installed Operators.
    2. Select the openshift-logging project.
    3. Click the Cluster Logging Operator.
    4. Click Subscription Channel.
    5. In the Change Subscription Update Channel window, select 4.6 and click Save.

    6. Wait for a few seconds, then click Operators Installed Operators.

      The Cluster Logging Operator is shown as 4.6. For example: 

      Cluster Logging
4.6.0-202007012112.p0 provided
by Red Hat, Inc

      Wait for the Status field to report Succeeded.

  3. Check the logging components:

    1. Ensure that all Elasticsearch pods are in the Ready status: 

      $ oc get pod -n openshift-logging --selector component=elasticsearch

      Example output

      NAME                                            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-1-55b7546f4c-mshhk   2/2     Running   0          31m
elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-2-5c6d87589f-gx5hk   2/2     Running   0          30m
elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-3-88df5d47-m45jc     2/2     Running   0          29m

    2. Ensure that the Elasticsearch cluster is healthy: 

      $ oc exec -n openshift-logging -c elasticsearch elasticsearch-cdm-1pbrl44l-1-55b7546f4c-mshhk -- es_cluster_health
       
      {
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "status" : "green",
}
...

    3. Ensure that the Elasticsearch cron jobs are created: 

      $ oc project openshift-logging
       
      $ oc get cronjob
       
      NAME                     SCHEDULE       SUSPEND   ACTIVE   LAST SCHEDULE   AGE
curator                  30 3,9,15,21 * * * False 0        <none>          20s
elasticsearch-im-app     */15 * * * *   False     0        <none>          56s
elasticsearch-im-audit   */15 * * * *   False     0        <none>          56s
elasticsearch-im-infra   */15 * * * *   False     0        <none>          56s

    4. Verify that the log store is updated to 4.6 and the indices are green: 

      $ oc exec -c elasticsearch <any_es_pod_in_the_cluster> -- indices

      Verify that the output includes the app-00000x, infra-00000x, audit-00000x, .security indices.

    6. Verify that the log visualizer is updated to 4.6 using the Kibana CRD: 

      $ oc get kibana kibana -o json

      Verify that the output includes a Kibana pod with the ready status:

      Example 8.2. Sample output with a ready Kibana pod

      [

"pods": {
"failed": [],
"notReady": []
"ready": []
},
"replicaSets": [
"kibana-5fdd766ffd"
],
"replicas": 1
}
]

    7. Verify the Curator is updated to 4.6: 

      $ oc get cronjob -o name
       
      cronjob.batch/curator
cronjob.batch/elasticsearch-im-app
cronjob.batch/elasticsearch-im-audit
cronjob.batch/elasticsearch-im-infra

      Verify that the output includes the elasticsearch-im-* indices.

Post-update tasks

If you use the Log Forwarding API to forward logs, after the OpenShift Elasticsearch Operator and Cluster Logging Operator are fully updated to 4.6, you must replace your LogForwarding custom resource (CR) with a ClusterLogForwarder CR.

8.2. Updating log forwarding custom resources
Copier lien

The OpenShift Container Platform Log Forward API has been promoted from Technology Preview to Generally Available in OpenShift Container Platform 4.6. The GA release contains some improvements and enhancements that require you to make a change to your ClusterLogging custom resource (CR) and to replace your LogForwarding custom resource (CR) with a ClusterLogForwarder CR.

Sample ClusterLogForwarder instance in OpenShift Container Platform 4.6

apiVersion: logging.openshift.io/v1
kind: ClusterLogForwarder
metadata:
  name: instance
  namespace: openshift-logging

  - inputRefs:
      - audit
    name: auditlogs
    outputRefs:
      - fluentd
      - default
...

Sample ClusterLogForwarder CR in OpenShift Container Platform 4.5

apiVersion: logging.openshift.io/v1alpha1
kind: LogForwarding
metadata:

spec:
  disableDefaultForwarding: true
  outputs:
   - name: elasticsearch
     type: elasticsearch
     endpoint: remote.elasticsearch.com:9200
   - name: fluentd
     type: forward
     endpoint: fluentdserver.example.com:24224
     secret:
       name: fluentdserver
  pipelines:
   - inputSource: logs.infra
     name: infra-logs
     outputRefs:
     - elasticearch
   - inputSource: logs.app
     name: app-logs
     outputRefs:
      -  elasticearch
   - inputSource: logs.audit
     name: audit-logs
     outputRefs:
      -  fluentd

The following procedure shows each parameter you must change.

Procedure

To update the ClusterLogForwarder CR in 4.5 to the ClusterLogForwarding CR for 4.6, make the following modifications:

  1. Edit the ClusterLogging custom resource (CR) to remove the logforwardingtechpreview annotation:

    Sample ClusterLogging CR

    apiVersion: "logging.openshift.io/v1"
kind: "ClusterLogging"
metadata:
  annotations:
    clusterlogging.openshift.io/logforwardingtechpreview: enabled
    1 
    
  name: "instance"
  namespace: "openshift-logging"
....

    1
    Remove the logforwardingtechpreview annotation.

  2. Export the ClusterLogForwarder CR to create a YAML file for the ClusterLogForwarder instance: 

    $ oc get LogForwarding instance -n openshift-logging -o yaml| tee ClusterLogForwarder.yaml

  3. Edit the YAML file to make the following modifications:

    Sample ClusterLogForwarder instance in OpenShift Container Platform 4.6

    apiVersion: logging.openshift.io/v1
    1 
    
kind: ClusterLogForwarder
    2 
    
metadata:
  name: instance
  namespace: openshift-logging
....
spec:
    3 
    
  outputs:
  - url: http://remote.elasticsearch.com:9200
    4 
    
    name: elasticsearch
    type: elasticsearch
  - url: tls://fluentdserver.example.com:24224
    name: fluentd
    type: fluentdForward
    5 
    
    secret:
      name: fluentdserver
  pipelines:
  - inputRefs:
    6 
    
      - infrastructure
      - application
    name: mylogs
    outputRefs:
     - elasticsearch
  - inputRefs:
      - audit
    name: auditlogs
    outputRefs:
      - fluentd
      - default
    7 
    
...

    1
    Change the apiVersion from "logging.openshift.io/v1alpha1" to "logging.openshift.io/v1".
    2
    Change the object kind from kind: "LogForwarding" to kind: "ClusterLogForwarder".
    3
    Remove the disableDefaultForwarding: true parameter.
    4
    Change the output parameter from spec.outputs.endpoint to spec.outputs.url. Add a prefix to the URL, such as https://, tcp://, and so forth, if a prefix is not present.
    5
    For Fluentd outputs, change the type from forward to fluentdForward.
    6
    Change the pipelines:
    • Change spec.pipelines.inputSource to spec.pipelines.inputRefs
    • Change logs.infra to infrastructure
    • Change logs.app to application
    • Change logs.audit to audit
    7
    Optional: Add a default pipeline to send logs to the internal Elasticsearch instance. You are not required to configure a default output.
    Note

    If you want to forward logs to only the internal OpenShift Container Platform Elasticsearch instance, do not configure the Log Forwarding API.

  4. Create the CR object: 

    $ oc create -f ClusterLogForwarder.yaml

For information on the new capabilities of the Log Forwarding API, see Forwarding logs to third party systems.
