subject-arn	The Eucalyptus ARN of the service affected by the event.
subject-name	The name of the service affected by the event.
subject-type	The type of service affected by the event.
timestamp	The date and time of the event’s creation.

Environment

Note

The command requires access keys and knowledge of where to locate the web services it needs to contact. It can obtain these from several locations.

Environment	Description
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID	The access key ID to use when authenticating web service requests. This takes precedence over and euca2ools.ini, but not -I.
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY	The secret key to use when authenticating web service requests. This takes precedence over –region and euca2ools.ini(5), but not -S.
EUCA_BOOTSTRAP_URL	The URL of the service to contact. This takes precedence over –region and euca2ools.ini, but not -U.

Options

Option	Description	Required
-f, –format format	Print events in a given format, where format can be: yaml or oneline, and format:string. See for details about each format. When omitted, the format defaults to yaml.	No
-s, –show-stack-traces	Include the stack-trace tag in events’ data. This is omitted by default due to its length.	No

Output

There are several built-in formats, and you can define additional formats using a format: string , as described below. Here are the details of the built-in formats:

yaml This outputs block-style YAML designed to be easily readable. Tags that are empty or not defined do not appear in this output at all.

events:
            - timestamp: {timestamp}
            severity: {severity}
            id: {id}
            subject-type: {subject-type}
            subject-name: {subject-name}
            subject-host: {subject-host}
            subject-arn: {subject-arn}
            message: |-
            {message}
            stack-trace: |-
            {stack-trace}

oneline This output is designed to be as compact as possible.

{timestamp} {severity} {subject-type} {subject-name} {message}

format:string The format: string format allows you to specify which information you want to show using placeholders enclosed in curly braces to indicate where to show the tags for each event. For example:

euserv-describe-events -f "format:{timestamp} {subject-name} {message}"

Example

To output a list of service-affecting events in the oneline format:

euserv-describe-events --format oneline
2016-06-20 16:16:08 INFO node 10.111.1.15 the node is operating normally\nFound service status for 10.111.1.15: ENABLED
2016-06-27 17:37:57 ERROR node 10.111.5.50 Error occurred in transport
2016-06-28 07:00:17 ERROR node 10.111.5.50
