Pod Logs outside of --data-dir #3508

Open

Description

Before creating an issue, make sure you've checked the following:

  • You are running the latest released version of k0s
  • Make sure you've searched for existing issues, both open and closed
  • Make sure you've searched for PRs too, a fix might've been merged already
  • You're looking at docs for the released version, "main" branch docs are usually ahead of released versions.

Platform

Rocky 9

Version

v1.27.4+k0s.0

Sysinfo

I'll follow this up if necessary. I can also upgrade the deployment to 1.27.5 if necessary later on.

What happened?

The k0s deployment has the data-directory configured to be /var/kubernetes, which is on a large partition. The root partition is fairly small. One of our nodes ran out of disk space with most of the usage being in /var/log/pods. I would have assumed that pod logs also go to a subfolder of the data-directory.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Deploy k0s with --data-dir pointing to /var/kubernetes.
  2. Deploy a pod, that produces tons of logs
  3. Watch the /var/log/pods folder grow in size

Expected behavior

Logs are inside of data dir

Actual behavior

Logs are in /var/log/pods
