Wizard: Logging

If you have an account with a 3rd party S3-like service such as DigitalOcean Spaces, Krill Manager can use it to store copies of the logs from your host operating systemd journal and the various Krill Manager operated services, including Krill RFC exchange logs.

KRILL SETUP WIZARD: Logging             [next: Determining public IP address]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Would you like logs (e.g. Krill logs and RFC protocol messages, NGINX and
RsyncD access and error logs, and operating system logs) to be uploaded
automatically to an AWS S3 compatible provider (e.g. DigitalOcean Spaces)?

For information about these services and to sign up and create a
storage "bucket" please visit the service provider web pages, e.g.:
  - https://aws.amazon.com/s3/
  - https://www.digitalocean.com/products/spaces/

> Would you like to upload logs to an AWS S3 compatible service? [YES/NO]:
Enter:
  • NO to skip this page and continue with the wizard.
  • YES to provide your S3-like service connection details.

警告

If you do not choose to upload logs they are still available to you but in the event that the host suffers a failure you will lose these logs unless you capture them as part of a periodic backup process.

ちなみに

You can re-run krillmanager init later to enable log upload. However, note that only new logs from that moment on will be uploaded.

Providing Connection Details

After answering YES you will be prompted to enter the S3-like service connection and authentication details. You will need to obtain these from your S3-like service service provider.

The wizard will try to detect the environment that it is running in and provide sensible default values where possible, e.g. in the example below the S3 Endpoint value was set by the wizard based on the fact that the Droplet on which Krill Manager was running was located in the DigitalOcean ams3 region.

> Would you like to upload logs to an AWS S3 compatible service? [YES/NO]: YES

Please provide the connection details for your bucket.

You may find the official documentation for your AWS S3 provider helpful, e.g.:
  - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-sec-cred-types.html
  - https://developers.digitalocean.com/documentation/spaces/#aws-s3-compatibility

Attempting to list contents of bucket krillmanagerdemo to verify credentials..
Invoking S3 client..
Success!

Press any key to continue:

Once the wizard has the connection and authentication details it will attempt to verify them by trying to list the contents of the destination S3 bucket.

In the event that the connection and/or authentication details are incorrect the wizard will output error messages instead of Success! and you will be returned to the initial yes/no question where you can either choose to try again or continue without log uploading at this time.
