Observability for Milvus Clusters

tpl

    Monitor the cluster status until it transitions to the Running state:

    kubectl get cluster milvus-cluster -n demo -w
    

    Expected Output:

    NAME                CLUSTER-DEFINITION   TERMINATION-POLICY   STATUS     AGE
    milvus-standalone   milvus               Delete               Creating   40s
    milvus-standalone   milvus               Delete               Creating   71s
    milvus-standalone   milvus               Delete               Creating   71s
    milvus-standalone   milvus               Delete               Updating   71s
    milvus-standalone   milvus               Delete               Running    2m55s
    

    Check the component and pod status:

    kubectl get component -n demo -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=milvus-standalone
    

    Expected Output:

    NAME                       DEFINITION                        SERVICE-VERSION   STATUS    AGE
    milvus-standalone-etcd     etcd-3-1.0.0                      3.5.15            Running   3m5s
    milvus-standalone-milvus   milvus-standalone-1.0.0           v2.3.2            Running   114s
    milvus-standalone-minio    milvus-minio-1.0.0                8.0.17            Running   3m5s
    
    kubectl get pods -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=milvus-standalone -n demo
    

    Expected Output:

    NAME                         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
    milvus-standalone-etcd-0     2/2     Running   0          4m31s
    milvus-standalone-milvus-0   1/1     Running   0          3m20s
    milvus-standalone-minio-0    1/1     Running   0          4m31s
    

    Once the cluster status becomes Running, your Milvus cluster is ready for use.

    TIP

    If you are creating the cluster for the very first time, it may take some time to pull images before running.
