Debian

Current stable

You can also use v1-debian-PLUGIN tag to refer latest v1 image, e.g. v1-debian-elasticsearch. On production, strict tag is better to avoid unexpected update.

See dockerhub's tags page for older tags.

Old stable

Alpine Linux (This is deprecated. Use Debian images instead)

What is Fluentd?

Fluentd Logo

Fluentd is an open source data collector, which lets you unify the data collection and consumption for a better use and understanding of data.

www.fluentd.org

Image versions

Fluentd versioning is as follows:

Series Description
v1.x current stable
v0.12 Old stable, no longer updated

Settings

Default image version

Default YAML uses latest v1 images like fluent/fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset:v1-debian-kafka. If you want to avoid unexpected image update, specify exact version for image like fluent/fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset:v1.7.0-debian-kafka-1.1.

Run as root

This is for v0.12 images.

In Kubernetes and default setting, fluentd needs root permission to read logs in /var/log and write pos_file to /var/log. To avoid permission error, you need to set FLUENT_UID environment variable to 0 in your Kubernetes configuration.

Use your configuration

These images have default configuration and support some environment variables for parameters but it sometimes doesn't fit your case. If you want to use your configuration, use ConfigMap feature.

Disable systemd input

If you don't setup systemd in the container, fluentd shows following messages by default configuration.

[warn]: #0 [in_systemd_bootkube] Systemd::JournalError: No such file or directory retrying in 1s
[warn]: #0 [in_systemd_kubelet] Systemd::JournalError: No such file or directory retrying in 1s
[warn]: #0 [in_systemd_docker] Systemd::JournalError: No such file or directory retrying in 1s

You can suppress these messages by setting disable to FLUENTD_SYSTEMD_CONF environment variable in your kubernetes configuration.

Disable prometheus input plugins

By default, latest images launch prometheus plugins to monitor fluentd. You can disable prometheus input plugin by setting disable to FLUENTD_PROMETHEUS_CONF environment variable in your kubernetes configuration.

Disable sed execution on elasticsearch image

By historical reason, elasaticsearch image executes sed command during startup phase when FLUENT_ELASTICSEARCH_USER or FLUENT_ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD is specified. This sometimes causes a problem with read only mount. To avoid this problem, set "true" to FLUENT_ELASTICSEARCH_SED_DISABLE environment variable in your kubernetes configuration.

Running on OpenShift

This daemonset setting mounts /var/log as service account fluentd so you need to run containers as privileged container. Here is command example:

oc project kube-system
oc create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fluent/fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset/master/fluentd-daemonset-elasticsearch-rbac.yaml
oc adm policy add-scc-to-user privileged -z fluentd
oc patch ds fluentd -p "spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: fluentd
        securityContext:
          privileged: true"
oc delete pod -l k8s-app = fluentd-logging

This is from nekop's japanese article.

Note

kafka image doesn't support zookeeper parameters

zookeeper gem doesn't work on Debian 10, so kafka image doesn't include zookeeper gem.
