Details

When using logsCollection.enabled: true on a GKE Autopilot cluster I get the following error.

one or more objects failed to apply, reason: error when patching "/dev/shm/2609233200": admission webhook "warden-validating.common-webhooks.networking.gke.io" denied the request: GKE Warden rejected the request because it violates one or more constraints.

@reakaleek the best option for you is to not use the preset and to configure the filelog receiver and the corresponding kubernetes settings yourself to meet your needs. The preset is a best attempt for most situations, but cannot cover all scenarios.
