To learn how Istio handles tracing, visit this task's [overview](../overview/).
|
|
|
|
## Before you begin
|
|
|
|
1. To set up Istio, follow the instructions in the [Installation guide](/docs/setup/).
|
|
|
|
Use the Helm chart with tracing enabled to set the `--set tracing.enabled=true` option.
|
|
|
|
1. Deploy the [Bookinfo](/docs/examples/bookinfo/#deploying-the-application) sample application.
|
|
|
|
## Accessing the dashboard
|
|
|
|
1. To setup access to the tracing dashboard, use port forwarding:
|
|
|
|
{{< text bash >}}
|
|
$ kubectl -n istio-system port-forward $(kubectl -n istio-system get pod -l app=istio-ingressgateway -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') 15032:15032 &
|
|
{{< /text >}}
|
|
|
|
Open your browser to [http://localhost:15032](http://localhost:15032).
|
|
|
|
1. To use a Kubernetes ingress, specify the Helm chart option `--set tracing.ingress.enabled=true`.
|
|
|
|
## Generating traces using the Bookinfo sample
|
|
|
|
1. When the Bookinfo application is up and running, access `http://$GATEWAY_URL/productpage` one or more times
|
|
to generate trace information.
|
|
|
|
1. From the left-hand pane of the dashboard, select `productpage` from the **Service** drop-down list and click
|
|
**Find Traces**:
|
|
|
|
{{< image width="100%" ratio="52.68%"
|
|
link="./istio-tracing-list.png"
|
|
caption="Tracing Dashboard"
|
|
>}}
|
|
|
|
1. Click on the most recent trace at the top to see the details corresponding to the
|
|
latest request to the `/productpage`:
|
|
|
|
{{< image width="100%" ratio="36.32%"
|
|
link="./istio-tracing-details.png"
|
|
caption="Detailed Trace View"
|
|
>}}
|
|
|
|
1. The trace is comprised of a set of spans,
|
|
where each span corresponds to a Bookinfo service, invoked during the execution of a `/productpage` request, or
|
|
internal Istio component, for example: `istio-ingressgateway`, `istio-mixer`, `istio-policy`.
|
|
|
|
## Cleanup
|
|
|
|
1. Remove any `kubectl port-forward` processes that may still be running:
|
|
|
|
{{< text bash >}}
|
|
$ killall kubectl
|
|
{{< /text >}}
|
|
|
|
1. If you are not planning to explore any follow-on tasks, refer to the
|
|
[Bookinfo cleanup](/docs/examples/bookinfo/#cleanup) instructions
|
|
to shutdown the application.
