Note: This RBAC needs to be cluster-scoped to retrieve information on nodes and postgresclusters.

Event Capture

Support export captures all Events in the PostgresCluster's Namespace.
Event duration is determined by the '--event-ttl' setting of the Kubernetes
API server. Default is 1 hour.
- https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kube-apiserver/

Usage

pgo support export CLUSTER_NAME [flags]

Examples

# Short Flags
kubectl pgo support export daisy -o . -l 2

# Long Flags
kubectl pgo support export daisy --output . --pg-logs-count 2

# Monitoring namespace override
# This is only required when monitoring is not deployed in the PostgresCluster's namespace.
kubectl pgo support export daisy --monitoring-namespace another-namespace --output .

# Operator namespace override
# This is only required when the Operator is not deployed in the PostgresCluster's namespace.
# This is used for getting the logs and specs for the operator pod(s).
kubectl pgo support export daisy --operator-namespace another-namespace --output .

Options

  -h, --help                          help for export
      --monitoring-namespace string   Monitoring namespace override
      --operator-namespace string     Operator namespace override

Options inherited from parent commands

      --as string                      Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace.
      --as-group stringArray           Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups.
      --as-uid string                  UID to impersonate for the operation.
      --cache-dir string               Default cache directory (default "$HOME/.kube/cache")
      --certificate-authority string   Path to a cert file for the certificate authority
      --client-certificate string      Path to a client certificate file for TLS
      --client-key string              Path to a client key file for TLS
      --cluster string                 The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use
      --context string                 The name of the kubeconfig context to use
      --insecure-skip-tls-verify       If true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure

  -n, --namespace string               If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request
      --request-timeout string         The length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout requests. (default "0")
  -s, --server string                  The address and port of the Kubernetes API server
      --tls-server-name string         Server name to use for server certificate validation. If it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the server is used
      --token string                   Bearer token for authentication to the API server
