Today I was troubleshooting a potential DNS issue within a cluster. I ended up using a debug pod to test some stuff.
It would be nice if it was easier to create a debug container via the Azure portal with a debug container image that Azure manages with tools to help troubleshoot basic issues all via the Azure portal. Kind of like the run command.
This could mean users without much kubectl knowledge could troubleshoot straight from within Azure.
Hi @PixelRobots, thank you for sharing feedback! I have a few questions if you don't mind elaborating:
Hi @julia-yin, thanks so much!
We're a heavy AKS user, also working with many private and public preview features. To answer your questions:
There's a couple of things that we are missing that are difficult right now:
run command
functionality of the Virtual Machine Scale Set. It would be very helpful if there was a way to interactively work with the nodes from the Azure control plane (given that you have the right authorization)Hi @ma-ts, really appreciate the detailed explanation of your current troubleshooting methods and feedback. Some further questions for you if you don't mind elaborating:
Presenting syslog
with core pods log (calico, ip-masq, etc...) will be useful when specifically facing network issue under strict networking policy. (E.g. calico port block, not allowing mcr.microsoft.com
, API server certificate expired, SP expired, etc.) Basically, all kinds of these errors can have a trace in syslog
or relative core logs.
It is not possible to help customer categorize all possible root cause, but it will be a direction to help them if you can gather these in one page.
