Description
Unfortunately we found that if
kubernetes_meta
is set tofalse
andkubernetes_meta_reduce
is set totrue
at the same time, this plugin tries to delete keys fromrecord["kubernetes"]
, which has been deleted previously and is therefore nil.At the very least this spams fluentd logs with the error, which is self collected and creates a nasty loop.
At worst, we believe this may have caused container logs to be dropped due to the unhandled error in this plugin. We should confirm that behavior, and in general handle errors more gracefully in all of our plugins to ensure this sort of issue does not occur again.
