Viewing events using the CLI
List of events

Events in Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS are modeled based on events that happen to API objects in an Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS cluster.

Understanding events

Events allow Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS to record information about real-world events in a resource-agnostic manner. They also allow developers and administrators to consume information about system components in a unified way.

Viewing events using the CLI

You can get a list of events in a given project using the CLI.

Procedure

To view events in a project use the following command:

$ oc get events [-n <project>] (1)

1	The name of the project.

For example:

$ oc get events -n openshift-config

To view events in your project from the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS console.
1. Launch the Red Hat OpenShift service on AWS console.
2. Click Home → Events and select your project.
3. Move to resource that you want to see events. For example: Home → Projects → <project-name> → <resource-name>.
  
  Many objects, such as pods and deployments, have their own Events tab as well, which shows events related to that object.
