Post-Deployment

After successful deployment, follow these verification steps to ensure LogScale is running properly:

  1. Retrieve LogScale URL. Get the public FQDN for LogScale access:

    shell
    terraform output logscale_public_fqdn

  2. Verify Cluster Health. Check that all nodes are ready and healthy:

    shell
    # Verify all nodes are Ready
kubectl get nodes

# Check node resource usage
kubectl top nodes

  3. Verify Pod Status. Ensure all LogScale components are running:

    shell
    # Check all pods in the log namespace
kubectl get pods -n log

# Verify no pods are in Error/CrashLoopBackOff state
kubectl get pods --all-namespaces | grep -E "(Error|CrashLoopBackOff|ImagePullBackOff)"

# Check LogScale-specific pods are running
kubectl get pods -n log -l app.kubernetes.io/name=humio

  4. Verify Ingress and Load Balancer. Check that ingress is configured and has an external IP:

    shell
    # Check ingress configuration
kubectl get ingress -n log

# Verify load balancer has external IP (may take 5-10 minutes)
kubectl get svc -n log-ingress -o wide

# Check certificate status
kubectl get certificate -n log

  5. Verify LogScale Accessibility. Test LogScale web interface access:

    shell
    # Get the LogScale URL
LOGSCALE_URL=$(terraform output -raw logscale_public_fqdn)
echo "LogScale URL: https://$LOGSCALE_URL"

# Test HTTP response (should return 200)
curl -I https://$LOGSCALE_URL

  6. Perform initial LogScale setup:

    1. Access LogScale: Navigate to https://your-logscale-fqdn in your browser

    2. Accept SSL Certificate: If using Let's Encrypt, the certificate should be valid

    3. Initial Login: Use the default admin credentials or create initial user account

    4. Verify License: Check that your LogScale license is active in the UI
