1.9. Troubleshooting cluster in console with pending or failed status


If you observe Pending status or Failed status in the console for a cluster you created, follow the procedure to troubleshoot the problem.

After creating a new cluster by using the Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes console, the cluster does not progress beyond the status of Pending or displays Failed status.

If the cluster displays Failed status, navigate to the details page for the cluster and follow the link to the logs provided. If no logs are found or the cluster displays Pending status, continue with the following procedure to check for logs:

  • Procedure 1

    1. Run the following command on the hub cluster to view the names of the Kubernetes pods that were created in the namespace for the new cluster:

      oc get pod -n <new_cluster_name>
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      Replace new_cluster_name with the name of the cluster that you created.

    2. If no pod that contains the string provision in the name is listed, continue with Procedure 2. If there is a pod with provision in the title, run the following command on the hub cluster to view the logs of that pod:

      oc logs <new_cluster_name_provision_pod_name> -n <new_cluster_name> -c hive
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      Replace new_cluster_name_provision_pod_name with the name of the cluster that you created, followed by the pod name that contains provision.

    3. Search for errors in the logs that might explain the cause of the problem.
  • Procedure 2

    If there is not a pod with provision in its name, the problem occurred earlier in the process. Complete the following procedure to view the logs:

    1. Run the following command on the hub cluster:

      oc describe clusterdeployments -n <new_cluster_name>
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

      Replace new_cluster_name with the name of the cluster that you created. For more information about cluster installation logs, see Gathering installation logs in the Red Hat OpenShift documentation.

    2. See if there is additional information about the problem in the Status.Conditions.Message and Status.Conditions.Reason entries of the resource.

After you identify the errors in the logs, determine how to resolve the errors before you destroy the cluster and create it again.

The following example provides a possible log error of selecting an unsupported zone, and the actions that are required to resolve it:

No subnets provided for zones
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

When you created your cluster, you selected one or more zones within a region that are not supported. Complete one of the following actions when you recreate your cluster to resolve the issue:

  • Select a different zone within the region.
  • Omit the zone that does not provide the support, if you have other zones listed.
  • Select a different region for your cluster.

After determining the issues from the log, destroy the cluster and recreate it.

See Creating a cluster with Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes for more information about creating a cluster.
