For more information on AKS Diagnostics, visit AKS Diagnostics Overview. AKS PeriscopeRight click on your AKS cluster and click on Run AKS Periscope to collect node and pod logs for your AKS cluster and to export them to an Azure storage account. Upon selecting the option, a web view will load providing you the option to generate a downloadable link for the collected logs as well as a shareable link with 7-day expiry.
For more information, visit AKS Periscope. Configuring Storage AccountRunning the AKS Periscope requires you to have a storage account associated with the Diagnostic settings of your AKS cluster. If you have only one storage account associated with the Diagnostic settings of your AKS cluster, the collected logs will be stored in the associated storage account by default. If you have more than one storage account associated with the Diagnostics settings of your AKS cluster, then the extension will prompt you to choose the storage account for saving collected logs. If you don't have a storage account configured in the Diagnostic settings, please follow these instructions to enable it.
For more information on Diagnostics settings, visit Create diagnostic settings to send platform logs and metics to different destinations.
