Applier Kubernetes Events

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

The StormForge Applier emits standard Kubernetes Events. If your team uses kubectl, Lens, k9s, or a cluster event exporter to track cluster activity, you can track Applier activity without any additional configuration.

For push-based notifications when the Applier applies a recommendation, see Configure applier alerts.

View events

Use kubectl to query events on any Applier-managed workload:

# Events on a specific workload
kubectl get events -n <namespace> --field-selector involvedObject.name=<workload-name>

# Filter by event reason (substitute any reason from the reference below)
kubectl get events -n <namespace> --field-selector reason=RecommendationApplied

# Watch for a specific reason in real time
kubectl get events -n <namespace> -w --field-selector reason=RecommendationApplied

Events also appear in kubectl describe deployment <name> (or statefulset, daemonset, etc.) under the Events: section.

You can view workload recommendation status details in these locations:

In workload lists on the Overview and Workloads pages
On the Workloads Summary page: Click View Summary on the Workloads page and drill down by status, error, or warning
In the Recommendation section of the workload details page header

Icon	Status	Description
	Learning	Indicates one of the following: Preliminary recommendations are available based on data collected so far; complete recommendations will be available when the workload’s learning period is complete. Waiting for Data: A workload (typically a CronJob) has not run yet and StormForge is waiting for data. No action required.
	Ready	A recommendation is available to apply to this workload and will be applied if auto-deployment is enabled; otherwise, you can it apply manually.
	Informational	Provides additional details about a recommendation, for example, the recommendation was constrained by bounds, HPA is at min or max replicas. See the banner on the workload page for details. No action required.
	Unsupported	Recommendations are not provided in these scenarios: corrupt usage data; `batch/v1` Jobs that run for less than 10 minutes; when an HPA oscillates between min and max replicas, scales on >1 resource or containerResource metric, or has a `target.averageUtilization` >=100. Typically, no action is required. For details see the Unsupported workloads section of the Troubleshooting topic.
	Error	Error types include recommendation failure, scaled to zero, missing data, expired recommendations, and applier failure. For details and troubleshooting steps, see the Errors section of the Troubleshooting topic.
