Kubernetes Event Disappears After 60mins

Problem

  • Kubernetes Event Disappears After 60mins
  • Storing Kubernetes Events Persistently

Environment

  • Platform9 Managed Kubernetes - All Versions

Answer

  • By default, Kubernetes events have a life span of 1-hour duration for easing the burden on ETCD, which is noted in this upstream feature request. This default value of 1 hour is customizable with kube-apiserver flag --event-ttl <duration> flag.
  • To persistently store events, there are upstream projects like Eventrouter. But note that this project is not directly maintained by Platform9.
