Accessing Graylog

Simplyblock's control plane includes a Prometheus, Grafana, and Graylog installation.

Graylog retrieves logs for all control plane and storage node services.

The standard retention period for metrics is 7 days. However, this can be changed when creating a cluster.

How to access Graylog

Graylog can be accessed through all management node API. It is recommended to set up a load balancer with session stickyness in front of the Graylog installation(s).

Graylog URLs
http://<MGMT_NODE_IP>/graylog

The Graylog installation uses the cluster secret as its password for the user admin.

If the simplyblock control plane is installed outside Kubernetes, to retrieve the cluster secret, the following commands should be used:

Get the cluster UUID
sbctl cluster list
Get the cluster secret
sbctl cluster get-secret <CLUSTER_ID>
