How do you access OpenShift’s logging and metrics for your application?

• A. Use a dedicated external logging service and Prometheus for metrics, separate from OpenShift tooling.
• B. Access logs via oc logs, but metrics require a separate tool; not integrated.
• C. OpenShift provides no built-in logging or metrics tooling.
• D. Logs are only accessible via a dedicated agent running on each node.

Answer: (C)

OpenShift includes built‑in tooling for both logging and metrics, integrated into the platform rather than requiring entirely separate external solutions. For logs, you can view individual pod logs with the oc logs command, and if cluster logging is enabled, logs are collected by the logging stack (Fluentd/Elasticsearch/Kibana) and can be browsed in Kibana or via the OpenShift Console’s logging view. For metrics, OpenShift uses a Prometheus-based monitoring stack that is accessible from the OpenShift Console under Monitoring, with dashboards and metrics that you can query directly or through Grafana if it’s installed. This built‑in integration means you don’t have to rely on separate tools to access basic log and metric data—though external integrations are possible if you need something outside the default setup.
