To view logs for a specific build "name-1" in OpenShift, which command?

• A. oc logs bc/name
• B. oc logs build/name-1
• C. oc logs -f bc/name
• D. oc describe build name-1

Answer: (B)

Viewing logs for a specific build uses the Build resource itself, because the build process runs in its own pod and that pod’s output is what you want to see. The correct command targets the build by its name, for example build/name-1, and streams its log output. BuildConfig (bc/name) is just the template that can trigger builds; it doesn’t contain the build’s log output. Describing the build shows status and metadata, not the log stream. If you want to continuously follow the logs, you can add -f as in oc logs -f build/name-1.
