    controller logs

The controller is an API, so all the communication made from Anka-agent or CI platforms(Jenkins) stored in the controller logs. If a vm fails to start it suggests first to check this logs.
The controller relies on an internal ETCD database. Logs for ETCD will be included in the controller logs, but by default they are set to be non-verbose.
