Which command retrieves logs for a deployment configuration?

• A. oc logs dc/<application-name>
• B. oc logs deploy/<application-name>
• C. oc get logs dc/<application-name>
• D. oc logs deploymentconfig/<application-name>

Answer: (A)

In OpenShift, to view the logs associated with a DeploymentConfig you use the logs command with the DeploymentConfig resource type, abbreviated as dc. So you run oc logs dc/<application-name>. This fetches the logs from the pods created by the latest rollout of that deployment configuration. Using the other forms either targets a different resource type (a Deployment) or uses a syntax that isn’t for retrieving logs, so they won’t return the DC’s logs. The short alias dc is the standard and expected way to reference a DeploymentConfig in this context.
