Viewing Greenplum® cluster logs
Managed Service for Greenplum® allows you to get a cluster log snippet for the selected period and view logs in real time.
Note
Cluster logs are kept for 30 days.
Getting a cluster log

Go to the folder page and select Managed Service for Greenplum.
-
Click the cluster name and select the
Logs tab. -
Specify the time period you want the log info for: enter it manually or select in the calendar using the date input field.
-
Select the service type for which you want to output logs:
GREENPLUM
: Greenplum® operations log.GREENPLUM_POOLER
: Connection pooler operations log.GREENPLUM_PXF
: PXF protocol log.
-
Select the hosts and logging level if needed.
A list of log entries for the selected time period will be displayed. To view detailed information about an event, click the respective entry in the list.
If there are too many records and not all of them are displayed, click Load more at the end of the list.
If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

View a description of the CLI command to view cluster logs:
yc managed-greenplum cluster list-logs --help
-
Run the following command to get cluster logs (our example does not contain a complete list of available parameters):
yc managed-greenplum cluster list-logs <cluster_name_or_ID> \ --limit <record_number_limit> \ --format <output_format> \ --service-type <service_type> \ --columns <list_of_columns_with_output_data> \ --filter <record_filter_settings> \ --since <left_boundary_of_time_range> \ --until <right_boundary_of_time_range>
Where:
-
--limit
: limits on the number of entries to output. -
--format
: Format for log entries (text
,yaml
,json
, orjson-rest
). -
--service-type
: Service type for which you want to output records:greenplum
: Greenplum® operations log.greenplum-pooler
: Connection manager operations log.greenplum-pxf
: PXF protocol log.
-
--columns
: List of columns with output data:hostname
: Host name.level
: Logging level, such asinfo
.pid
: ID of the current session's server process.text
: Message output by the component.
Note
A list of columns to output depends on the selected
--service-type
. Our example only contains the main columns of thegreenplum-pooler
type.To output separate columns, provide the
--format
key and specify the output format (yaml
,json
, orjson-rest
). Columns are not supported fortext
output format that is set by default. -
--filter
: record filter settings, for example,message.hostname='node1.mdb.yandexcloud.net'
. -
--since
: Left boundary of a time range in RFC-3339 ,HH:MM:SS
format or a time interval relative to the current time. Examples:2006-01-02T15:04:05Z
,15:04:05
,2h
,3h30m ago
. -
--until
: right boundary of a time range, the format is similar to that of--since
.

You can request the cluster name and ID with a list of clusters in the folder.
To get a cluster log, use the listLogs REST API method for the Cluster resource or the ClusterService/ListLogs gRPC API call, and provide in the request:
-
Cluster ID in the
clusterId
parameter.To find out the cluster ID, get a list of clusters in the folder.
-
Service type to get records for, in the
serviceType
parameter.GREENPLUM
: Greenplum® operations log.GREENPLUM_POOLER
: Connection pooler operations log.GREENPLUM_PXF
: PXF protocol log.

or --folder-id
parameter.
To view cluster logs as they become available, run this command:
yc managed-greenplum cluster list-logs <cluster_name_or_ID> --follow
You can request the cluster name and ID with a list of clusters in the folder.
To get a cluster log stream, use the streamLogs REST API method for the Cluster resource or the ClusterService/StreamLogs gRPC API call, and provide in the request:
-
Cluster ID in the
clusterId
parameter.To find out the cluster ID, get a list of clusters in the folder.
-
Service type to get records for, in the
serviceType
parameter.GREENPLUM
