Clean Up Logs After a BOA Kubernetes Job

Delete log entries from previous boot orchestration jobs. The Boot Orchestration Service (BOS) launches a Boot Orchestration Agent (BOA) Kubernetes job. BOA then launches a Configuration Framework Service (CFS) session, resulting in a CFS-BOA Kubernetes job. Thus, there are two separate sets of jobs that can be removed.

Deleting log entries creates more space and helps improve the usability of viewing logs.

Prerequisites

  • A BOS session has finished.

Procedure

  1. List the current BOA jobs.

    ncn-mw# kubectl get jobs -n services | grep boa

    Example output:

    boa-2c2211aa-9876-4aa7-92e2-c8a64d9bd9a6                    1/1           6m58s      13d
boa-51918dbd-bde2-4836-9500-2a7bad93787c                    1/1           65s        9d

  2. Delete any jobs that are no longer needed.

    Do not delete any jobs that are currently running.

    ncn-mw# kubectl delete jobs BOA_JOB_ID
