Viewing and listing the nodes in your OpenShift Container Platform cluster

You can list all the nodes in your cluster to obtain information such as status, age, memory usage, and details about the nodes.

When you perform node management operations, the CLI interacts with node objects that are representations of actual node hosts. The master uses the information from node objects to validate nodes with health checks.

About listing all the nodes in a cluster

You can get detailed information on the nodes in the cluster.

  • The following command lists all nodes:

    $ oc get nodes

    The following example is a cluster with healthy nodes:

    $ oc get nodes
    Example output
    NAME                   STATUS    ROLES     AGE       VERSION
master.example.com     Ready     master    7h        v1.29.4
node1.example.com      Ready     worker    7h        v1.29.4
node2.example.com      Ready     worker    7h        v1.29.4

    The following example is a cluster with one unhealthy node:

    $ oc get nodes
    Example output
    NAME                   STATUS                      ROLES     AGE       VERSION
master.example.com     Ready                       master    7h        v1.29.4
node1.example.com      NotReady,SchedulingDisabled worker    7h        v1.29.4
node2.example.com      Ready                       worker    7h        v1.29.4

    The conditions that trigger a NotReady status are shown later in this section.

  • The -o wide option provides additional information on nodes.

    $ oc get nodes -o wide
    Example output
    NAME                STATUS   ROLES    AGE    VERSION   INTERNAL-IP    EXTERNAL-IP   OS-IMAGE                                                       KERNEL-VERSION                 CONTAINER-RUNTIME

node1.example.com   Ready    worker   72m    v1.29.4   10.0.129.222   <none>        Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS 48.83.202103210901-0 (Ootpa)   4.18.0-240.15.1.el8_3.x86_64   cri-o://1.29.4-30.rhaos4.10.gitf2f339d.el8-dev
node2.example.com   Ready    worker   164m   v1.29.4   10.0.142.150   <none>        Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS 48.83.202103210901-0 (Ootpa)   4.18.0-240.15.1.el8_3.x86_64   cri-o://1.29.4-30.rhaos4.10.gitf2f339d.el8-dev

  • The following command lists information about a single node:

    $ oc get node <node>

    For example:

    $ oc get node node1.example.com
    Example output
    NAME                   STATUS    ROLES     AGE       VERSION
node1.example.com      Ready     worker    7h        v1.29.4

  • The following command provides more detailed information about a specific node, including the reason for the current condition:

    $ oc describe node <node>

    For example:

    $ oc describe node node1.example.com

The following example contains some values that are specific to OpenShift Container Platform on AWS.

#...
1 The name of the node.
2 The role of the node, either master or worker.
3 The labels applied to the node.
4 The annotations applied to the node.
5 The taints applied to the node.
6 The node conditions and status. The conditions stanza lists the Ready, PIDPressure, MemoryPressure, DiskPressure and OutOfDisk status. These condition are described later in this section.
7 The IP address and hostname of the node.
8 The pod resources and allocatable resources.
9 Information about the node host.
10 The pods on the node.
11 The events reported by the node.

The control plane label is not automatically added to newly created or updated master nodes. If you want to use the control plane label for your nodes, you can manually configure the label. For more information, see Understanding how to update labels on nodes in the Additional resources section.

Among the information shown for nodes, the following node conditions appear in the output of the commands shown in this section:

Table 1. Node Conditions
Condition Description

Ready

If true, the node is healthy and ready to accept pods. If false, the node is not healthy and is not accepting pods. If unknown, the node controller has not received a heartbeat from the node for the node-monitor-grace-period (the default is 40 seconds).

DiskPressure

If true, the disk capacity is low.

MemoryPressure

If true, the node memory is low.

PIDPressure

If true, there are too many processes on the node.

OutOfDisk

If true, the node has insufficient free space on the node for adding new pods.

NetworkUnavailable

If true, the network for the node is not correctly configured.

NotReady

If true, one of the underlying components, such as the container runtime or network, is experiencing issues or is not yet configured.

SchedulingDisabled

Pods cannot be scheduled for placement on the node.
Additional resources

Listing pods on a node in your cluster

You can list all the pods on a specific node.

Procedure

  • To list all or selected pods on one or more nodes:

    $ oc describe node <node1> <node2>

    For example:

    $ oc describe node ip-10-0-128-218.ec2.internal

  • To list all or selected pods on selected nodes:

    $ oc describe node --selector=<node_selector>
    $ oc describe node --selector=kubernetes.io/os

    Or:

    $ oc describe node -l=<pod_selector>
    $ oc describe node -l node-role.kubernetes.io/worker

  • To list all pods on a specific node, including terminated pods:

    $ oc get pod --all-namespaces --field-selector=spec.nodeName=<nodename>

Viewing memory and CPU usage statistics on your nodes

You can display usage statistics about nodes, which provide the runtime environments for containers. These usage statistics include CPU, memory, and storage consumption.

Prerequisites

  • You must have cluster-reader permission to view the usage statistics.

  • Metrics must be installed to view the usage statistics.

Procedure

  • To view the usage statistics:

    $ oc adm top nodes
    Example output
    NAME                                   CPU(cores)   CPU%      MEMORY(bytes)   MEMORY%

ip-10-0-140-137.ec2.compute.internal   398m         26%       2473Mi          33%
ip-10-0-142-44.ec2.compute.internal    656m         43%       6119Mi          82%
ip-10-0-146-165.ec2.compute.internal   188m         12%       3367Mi          45%
ip-10-0-19-62.ec2.compute.internal     896m         59%       5754Mi          77%
ip-10-0-44-193.ec2.compute.internal    632m         42%       5349Mi          72%

  • To view the usage statistics for nodes with labels:

    $ oc adm top node --selector=''

    You must choose the selector (label query) to filter on. Supports =, ==, and !=.
