HCP Terraform Operator for Kubernetes

The Operator can manage the following types of resources:

• AgentPool manages HCP Terraform Agent Pools, HCP Terraform Agent Tokens and can perform TFC agent scaling
• Module implements API-driven Run Workflows
• Project manages HCP Terraform Projects
• Workspace manages HCP Terraform Workspaces

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with the Operator there are a number of ways how to troubleshoot it:

• check the Operator logs:

  $ kubectl logs -f <POD_NAME>
  

  Logs for a specific CR can be identified with the following pattern:

  {"<KIND>": "<NAMESPACE>/<METADATA.NAME>", "msg": "..."}
  

  For example:

  2023-01-05T12:11:31Z INFO Agent Pool Controller	{"agentpool": "default/this", "msg": "successfully reconcilied agent pool"}
  

• check the CR:

  $ kubectl get agentpool <NAME>
  $ kubectl get module <NAME>
  $ kubectl get project <NAME>
  $ kubectl get workspace <NAME>
  

• check the CR events:

  $ kubectl describe agentpool <NAME>
  $ kubectl describe module <NAME>
  $ kubectl describe project <NAME>
  $ kubectl describe workspace <NAME>
