Deprecations

• The actions_node metric is deprecated due to the potential for high cardinality causing an issue for downstream consumers. A new metric actions has been added to take the place of actions_node without the potential for high cardinality. This release publishes both metrics but actions_node will be removed in a future release.

v1.18.0

Improved logging in Queue Processor mode

v1.18.0 introduces the logFormatVersion Helm chart option, to allow you to opt-in to more detailed logs.

The default value is 1, which keeps logging the same way it did in prior releases (<= v1.17.3).

Setting the value to 2 will give you more detail about which AWS event triggered the cordon/drain. Previously, all these events were bucketed under SQS_TERMINATE and it was difficult to tell what was happening.

This option is also available as a command line flag, --log-format-version

What does the new logging look like?

logFormatVersion=2 modifies several Debug, Info, and Warn logs, as well as Kubernetes events emitted by NTH. These changes improve your observability about what NTH is doing when responding to events via SQS. If your monitoring system is configured to look for any of the specific strings in the tables below, you may need to modify your configuration to use the updated strings if you use the new log format version.

Changes to logs when starting up

1. Remove event_type field from the Info log when starting a monitor; replace with monitor_type field, with new values. See Table 1.
2. Remove event_type field from the Warn log when a monitor fails to start; replace with monitor_type field, with new values. See Table 1.

Changes to logs when processing an event

1. New monitor field in the Info log. See Table 1.
2. Potentially change value of kind field in the Info log, if running Queue Processor mode. See Table 2.
3. Potentially change the "reason" field in the k8s event if running Queue Processor mode. See Table 3.

Changes to logs when receiving an SQS message

1. Include the specific event type instead of SQS_TERMINATE in the Debug log if running Queue Processor mode. See Table 2.
