    • Logging (Core) - Sprint 220, Log Collection - Sprint 221

    Description

      Version of components:

      Logging 5.4

      Server Version: 4.11.0-0.nightly-2022-04-07-053433

      Kubernetes Version: v1.23.3+37c5e75

       

      Description of the problem:

      When a user provided token added to a secret is used in ClusterLogForwarder instance to send logs to a LokiStack instance, the required Vector auth config with bearer token is not generated. The config should be generated even when a empty key token is used in a secret. 

       

      Steps to reproduce the issue.

      1 Deploy 5.4 ClusterLogging, Elasticsearch and LokiStack operators.

      2 Create the LokiStack instance.

      3 Create a ClusterLogging instance. 

      apiVersion: "logging.openshift.io/v1"
      kind: "ClusterLogging"
      metadata:
        name: "instance" 
        namespace: "openshift-logging"
        annotations:
          logging.openshift.io/preview-vector-collector: enabled
      spec:
        managementState: "Managed"  
        logStore:
          type: "elasticsearch"  
          retentionPolicy: 
            application:
              maxAge: 10h
            infra:
              maxAge: 10h
            audit:
              maxAge: 10h
          elasticsearch:
            nodeCount: 1 
            storage: {} 
            resources: 
                limits:
                  memory: "4Gi"
                requests:

            proxy: 
              resources:
                limits:
                  memory: 256Mi
                requests:
                  memory: 256Mi
            redundancyPolicy: "ZeroRedundancy"
        visualization:
          type: "kibana"  
          kibana:
            replicas: 1
        collection:
          logs:
            type: "vector"  
            vector: {} 

      4 Create a secret with the logcollector token.

      oc -n openshift-logging create secret generic lokistack-gateway-bearer-token --from-literal=token="eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6IktRZVVOVFI4X0o0eFNiMkp6V0NCdDRxUnMxUW10WHBKbDJCcDZ2T0Q5RFkifQ.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.TcoO6tc8ADekTtFfwljD6HH9Asti_oD_umXQOC-tjpX10xhushofu129TOU6nMgNRJJ02dOi4svxDU85_wBQel8aojkARmBf0IXYWYZy51xOBxzkNbXdUEvmRgQxXMrOK30Qj634IyvxLiaR6sEc2QJR5iQGHZMdvgWW69bAUjZz0d7mkQFEosKr1GBNnq8v1ApxynjQuNHYa2U4UNgCwLNIKmOLELGJe7xlCociP6DC6YnmxX3cczViWPK2SB7PlJCOfywEJQmH9eVO_V9Sc54q08zl2fCNYN8zsk7Ytsm7b9I2T8DuvUEfBWWpblHTQvS0HCpbe4k2hnA_1TL-AAiPtjDk0OhJxhD4tpWGP9FBglaWq6qLg-WJDZKGxPw1EHYz_znvbU4asfJLZj9b2KURpdfaNbXqfN7jh9JR0GedOE7wroT5QzV0oGuSEYuP8tqOGvYx8SKjAl1g2-JEVbW7oFn1UwiURwNU5s7n_bi2efjiz1Fesooq-m6Rv27-irIP3KrfWd6NHraq-P3p1VXl4unkYk4yu9tQ-Te45W2eqHlgEbcRP8SxntcjbgLdV4zjSNG-sVCavczsVl8SdoqeYiOQRqnquAmwZs7qE6WBj85cV3ELkYjip7R3Bbs8cKwD2TggVLkfscs6z9JqNAf5pIZsfzujmP77swGp3HA" 

      5 Create a ClusterLogForwarder instance with secret for connecting to the LokiStack output. 

      apiVersion: logging.openshift.io/v1
      kind: ClusterLogForwarder
      metadata:
        name: instance
        namespace: openshift-logging
      spec:
        outputs:
         - name: loki-app
           type: loki
           url: http://lokistack-instance-gateway-http.openshift-logging.svc:8080/api/logs/v1/application/
           secret:
             name: lokistack-gateway-bearer-token
         - name: loki-infra
           type: loki
           url: http://lokistack-instance-gateway-http.openshift-logging.svc:8080/api/logs/v1/infrastructure/
           secret:

         - name: loki-audit
           type: loki
           url: http://lokistack-instance-gateway-http.openshift-logging.svc:8080/api/logs/v1/audit/
           secret:
             name: lokistack-gateway-bearer-token
        pipelines:
         - name: send-app-logs
           inputRefs:
           - application
           outputRefs:
           - loki-app
         - name: send-infra-logs
           inputRefs:
           - infrastructure
           outputRefs:
           - loki-infra
         - name: send-audit-logs
           inputRefs:
           - audit
           outputRefs:
           - loki-audit 

      6 Extract and check the generated vector config. 

      [sinks.loki_app]
      type = "loki"
      inputs = ["send-app-logs"]
      endpoint = "http://lokistack-instance-gateway-http.openshift-logging.svc:8080/api/logs/v1/application/"[sinks.loki_app.encoding]
      codec = "json"[sinks.loki_app.labels]
      kubernetes_container_name = "{{kubernetes.container_name}}"
      kubernetes_host = "${VECTOR_SELF_NODE_NAME}"
      kubernetes_namespace_name = "{{kubernetes.pod_namespace}}"
      kubernetes_pod_name = "{{kubernetes.pod_name}}"
      log_type = "{{log_type}}"[sinks.loki_infra]
      type = "loki"
      inputs = ["send-infra-logs"]
      endpoint = "http://lokistack-instance-gateway-http.openshift-logging.svc:8080/api/logs/v1/infrastructure/"[sinks.loki_infra.encoding]
      codec = "json"[sinks.loki_infra.labels]
      kubernetes_container_name = "{{kubernetes.container_name}}"
      kubernetes_host = "${VECTOR_SELF_NODE_NAME}"
      kubernetes_namespace_name = "{{kubernetes.pod_namespace}}"
      kubernetes_pod_name = "{{kubernetes.pod_name}}"
      log_type = "{{log_type}}"[sinks.loki_audit]
      type = "loki"
      inputs = ["send-audit-logs"]
      endpoint = "http://lokistack-instance-gateway-http.openshift-logging.svc:8080/api/logs/v1/audit/"[sinks.loki_audit.encoding]
      codec = "json"[sinks.loki_audit.labels]
      kubernetes_container_name = "{{kubernetes.container_name}}"
      kubernetes_host = "${VECTOR_SELF_NODE_NAME}"
      kubernetes_namespace_name = "{{kubernetes.pod_namespace}}"
      kubernetes_pod_name = "{{kubernetes.pod_name}}"
      log_type = "{{log_type}}"[sinks.prometheus_output]
      type = "prometheus_exporter"
      inputs = ["internal_metrics"]
      address = "0.0.0.0:24231"
      default_namespace = "collector" 

       

      Expected results:

      1 The user provided token is added to Vector config.

      2 An empty token value can be provided in a secret. Useful when connecting to a Loki server which does not require any auth. However the presence of a token doesn't affect the connection to a server without auth, Vector is able to send logs to the service.
