Hello everyone

I have recently deploy heartbeat 7.16.3 in my k8s cluster and after deployment I am not able see heartbeat.autodiscover config inside pod config yaml but its there in my deployment yaml file.

Can you please tell me its normal behaviour or I am doing something wrong.  
How I can enable debugging logs in the pod so that I can see what is my pod is doing ?

My heartbeat deployment yml file
