Logging

Learn how to store logs for Billing Data Service (BDS).

BDS writes all logs to the standard output. 

Viewing logs

Execute the following command to get the pod name:

devops@developer:~$ kubectl -n bds get po

NAME                             READY   STATUS      RESTARTS   AGE

bds-t2023-2023-1624633200-w8nh5  0/1     Completed  0          34m

bds-t<tenant id>-<tenant id>-<job start linux time>-<random value>

Execute the following kubectl command to check the logs:

kubectl logs bds-pod-wn8bx

Setting the log level

Optionally, you can set the log level using the BDS_LOG_LEVEL environment variable. Acceptable values are:

CRITICAL, 50, ERROR, 40, WARNING, 30, INFO, 20, DEBUG, 10,NOTSET, 0.

If you do not set a value, BDS reads the default value from gvars.py. If gvars.py contains no value, BDS uses the default value (DEBUG).
