View OpenSearch Dashboards

OpenSearch Dashboards is part of the StackLight logging stack. Using the OpenSearch Dashboards web UI, you can view the visual representation of your OpenStack deployment notifications, logs, Kubernetes events, and other cluster notifications related to your deployment.

Note

By default, StackLight logging stack, including OpenSearch Dashboards, is disabled. For details, see Mirantis Container Cloud Reference Architecture: Deployment architecture.

To view the OpenSearch Dashboards:

1. Log in to the OpenSearch Dashboards web UI as described in Getting access.

2. Click the required dashboard to inspect the visualizations or perform a search:

   Dashboard	Description
   Notifications	Provides visualizations on the number of notifications over time per source and severity, host, and breakdowns. The dashboard includes search.
   K8s events	Provides visualizations on the number of Kubernetes events per type, and top event-producing resources and namespaces by reason and event type. Includes search.
   System Logs	Available for clusters created since Container Cloud 2.26.0 (Cluster releases 17.1.x, 16.1.x, or later). Provides visualizations on the number of log messages per severity, source, and top log-producing host, namespaces, containers, and applications. Includes search. Caution Due to a known issue, this dashboard does not exist in Container Cloud 2.26.0 (Cluster releases 17.1.0 and 16.1.0). The issue is addressed in Container Cloud 2.26.1 (Cluster releases 17.1.1 and 16.1.1). To work around the issue in 2.26.0, you can map the fields of the logstash index to the system one and view logs in the deprecated Logs dashboard. For mapping details, see System index fields mapped to Logstash index fields.
   Logs Deprecated in 2.26.0 (17.1.0 and 16.1.0)	Available only for clusters created before Container Cloud 2.26.0 (Cluster releases 17.0.x, 16.0.x, or earlier). Analogous to System Logs but contains logs generated only for the mentioned Cluster releases.
