Kibana pod will fail with error "KIBANA_MEMORY_LIMIT: unbound variable"
Environment
OpenShift Container Platform 3.5
Issue
When running the Kibana pod, the logs shows error KIBANA_MEMORY_LIMIT: unbound variable.
Resolution
Edit the Deployment Config of the Kibana and add the KIBANA_MEMORY_LIMIT variable, as shown below.
spec:
containers:
- env:
- name: ES_HOST
value: logging-es
- name: ES_PORT
value: "9200"
- name: KIBANA_MEMORY_LIMIT
value: 736Mi
Root Cause
The Kibana variable is required to be configured. If upgrade of the image was done and the Deployment Config does not have the env, it will fail.
