Chapter 24. Validating an installation
You can check the status of an OpenShift Container Platform cluster after an installation by following the procedures in this document.
24.1. Reviewing the installation log
You can review a summary of an installation in the OpenShift Container Platform installation log. If an installation succeeds, the information required to access the cluster is included in the log.
Prerequisites
- You have access to the installation host.
Procedure
Review the
.openshift_install.log
log file in the installation directory on your installation host:$ cat <install_dir>/.openshift_install.log
Example output
Cluster credentials are included at the end of the log if the installation is successful, as outlined in the following example:
... time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=info msg="Install complete!" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=info msg="To access the cluster as the system:admin user when using 'oc', run 'export KUBECONFIG=/home/myuser/install_dir/auth/kubeconfig'" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=info msg="Access the OpenShift web-console here: https://console-openshift-console.apps.mycluster.example.com" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=info msg="Login to the console with user: \"kubeadmin\", and password: \"password\"" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=debug msg="Time elapsed per stage:" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=debug msg=" Infrastructure: 6m45s" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=debug msg="Bootstrap Complete: 11m30s" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=debug msg=" Bootstrap Destroy: 1m5s" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=debug msg=" Cluster Operators: 17m31s" time="2020-12-03T09:50:47Z" level=info msg="Time elapsed: 37m26s"
24.2. Viewing the image pull source
For clusters with unrestricted network connectivity, you can view the source of your pulled images by using a command on a node, such as crictl images
.
However, for disconnected installations, to view the source of pulled images, you must review the CRI-O logs to locate the Trying to access
log entry, as shown in the following procedure. Other methods to view the image pull source, such as the crictl images
command, show the non-mirrored image name, even though the image is pulled from the mirrored location.
Prerequisites
-
You have access to the cluster as a user with the
cluster-admin
role.
Procedure
Review the CRI-O logs for a master or worker node:
$ oc adm node-logs <node_name> -u crio
Example output
The
Trying to access
log entry indicates where the image is being pulled from.... Mar 17 02:52:50 ip-10-0-138-140.ec2.internal crio[1366]: time="2021-08-05 10:33:21.594930907Z" level=info msg="Pulling image: quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release:4.10.0-ppc64le" id=abcd713b-d0e1-4844-ac1c-474c5b60c07c name=/runtime.v1alpha2.ImageService/PullImage Mar 17 02:52:50 ip-10-0-138-140.ec2.internal crio[1484]: time="2021-03-17 02:52:50.194341109Z" level=info msg="Trying to access \"li0317gcp1.mirror-registry.qe.gcp.devcluster.openshift.com:5000/ocp/release@sha256:1926eae7cacb9c00f142ec98b00628970e974284b6ddaf9a6a086cb9af7a6c31\"" Mar 17 02:52:50 ip-10-0-138-140.ec2.internal crio[1484]: time="2021-03-17 02:52:50.226788351Z" level=info msg="Trying to access \"li0317gcp1.mirror-registry.qe.gcp.devcluster.openshift.com:5000/ocp/release@sha256:1926eae7cacb9c00f142ec98b00628970e974284b6ddaf9a6a086cb9af7a6c31\"" ...
The log might show the image pull source twice, as shown in the preceding example.
If your
ImageContentSourcePolicy
object lists multiple mirrors, OpenShift Container Platform attempts to pull the images in the order listed in the configuration, for example:Trying to access \"li0317gcp1.mirror-registry.qe.gcp.devcluster.openshift.com:5000/ocp/release@sha256:1926eae7cacb9c00f142ec98b00628970e974284b6ddaf9a6a086cb9af7a6c31\" Trying to access \"li0317gcp2.mirror-registry.qe.gcp.devcluster.openshift.com:5000/ocp/release@sha256:1926eae7cacb9c00f142ec98b00628970e974284b6ddaf9a6a086cb9af7a6c31\"
24.3. Getting cluster version, status, and update details
You can view the cluster version and status by running the oc get clusterversion
command. If the status shows that the installation is still progressing, you can review the status of the Operators for more information.
You can also list the current update channel and review the available cluster updates.
Prerequisites
-
You have access to the cluster as a user with the
cluster-admin
role. -
You have installed the OpenShift CLI (
oc
).
Procedure
Obtain the cluster version and overall status:
$ oc get clusterversion
Example output
NAME VERSION AVAILABLE PROGRESSING SINCE STATUS version 4.6.4 True False 6m25s Cluster version is 4.6.4
The example output indicates that the cluster has been installed successfully.
If the cluster status indicates that the installation is still progressing, you can obtain more detailed progress information by checking the status of the Operators:
$ oc get clusteroperators.config.openshift.io
View a detailed summary of cluster specifications, update availability, and update history:
$ oc describe clusterversion
List the current update channel:
$ oc get clusterversion -o jsonpath='{.items[0].spec}{"\n"}'
Example output
{"channel":"stable-4.6","clusterID":"245539c1-72a3-41aa-9cec-72ed8cf25c5c"}
Review the available cluster updates:
$ oc adm upgrade
Example output
Cluster version is 4.6.4 Updates: VERSION IMAGE 4.6.6 quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release@sha256:c7e8f18e8116356701bd23ae3a23fb9892dd5ea66c8300662ef30563d7104f39

24.4. Querying the status of the cluster nodes by using the CLI
You can verify the status of the cluster nodes after an installation.
Prerequisites
-
You have access to the cluster as a user with the
cluster-admin
role. -
You have installed the OpenShift CLI (
oc
).
Procedure

Review CPU and memory resource availability for each cluster node:
$ oc adm top nodes
Example output
NAME CPU(cores) CPU% MEMORY(bytes) MEMORY% compute-1.example.com 128m 8% 1132Mi 16% control-plane-1.example.com 801m 22% 3471Mi 23% control-plane-2.example.com 1718m 49% 6085Mi 40% compute-2.example.com 935m 62% 5178Mi 75% compute-3.example.com 111m 7% 1131Mi 16% control-plane-3.example.com 942m 26% 4100Mi 27%
