initial code repo
This patch creates initial code repo.
For ceph, luminous stable release will be used for base code,
and next changes and optimization for ceph will be added to it.
For opensds, currently any changes can be upstreamed into original
opensds repo (https://github.com/opensds/opensds), and so stor4nfv
will directly clone opensds code to deploy stor4nfv environment.
And the scripts for deployment based on ceph and opensds will be
put into 'ci' directory.

Ceph-mgr receives MMgrReport +messages from all MgrClient processes (mons and OSDs, for instance) +with performance counter schema data and actual counter data, and keeps +a circular buffer of the last N samples. This plugin creates an HTTP +endpoint (like all Prometheus exporters) and retrieves the latest sample +of every counter when polled (or "scraped" in Prometheus terminology). +The HTTP path and query parameters are ignored; all extant counters +for all reporting entities are returned in text exposition format. +(See the Prometheus `documentation <https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/exposition_formats/#text-format-details>`_.) + +Enabling prometheus output +========================== + +The *prometheus* module is enabled with:: + + ceph mgr module enable prometheus + +Configuration +------------- + +By default the module will accept HTTP requests on port ``9283`` on all +IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on the host. The port and listen address are both +configurable with ``ceph config-key set``, with keys +``mgr/prometheus/server_addr`` and ``mgr/prometheus/server_port``. +This port is registered with Prometheus's `registry <https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/wiki/Default-port-allocations>`_. + +Statistic names and labels +========================== + +The names of the stats are exactly as Ceph names them, with +illegal characters ``.``, ``-`` and ``::`` translated to ``_``, +and ``ceph_`` prefixed to all names. + + +All *daemon* statistics have a ``ceph_daemon`` label such as "osd.123" +that identifies the type and ID of the daemon they come from. Some +statistics can come from different types of daemon, so when querying +e.g. an OSD's RocksDB stats, you would probably want to filter +on ceph_daemon starting with "osd" to avoid mixing in the monitor +rocksdb stats. + + +The *cluster* statistics (i.e. those global to the Ceph cluster) +have labels appropriate to what they report on. For example, +metrics relating to pools have a ``pool_id`` label. + +Pool and OSD metadata series +---------------------------- + +Special series are output to enable displaying and querying on +certain metadata fields. + +Pools have a ``ceph_pool_metadata`` field like this: + +:: + + ceph_pool_metadata{pool_id="2",name="cephfs_metadata_a"} 0.0 + +OSDs have a ``ceph_osd_metadata`` field like this: + +:: + + ceph_osd_metadata{cluster_addr="172.21.9.34:6802/19096",device_class="ssd",id="0",public_addr="172.21.9.34:6801/19096",weight="1.0"} 0.0 + + +Correlating drive statistics with node_exporter +----------------------------------------------- + +The prometheus output from Ceph is designed to be used in conjunction +with the generic host monitoring from the Prometheus node_exporter. + +To enable correlation of Ceph OSD statistics with node_exporter's +drive statistics, special series are output like this: + +:: + + ceph_disk_occupation{ceph_daemon="osd.0",device="sdd",instance="myhost",job="ceph"} + +To use this to get disk statistics by OSD ID, use the ``and on`` syntax +in your prometheus query like this: + +:: + + rate(node_disk_bytes_written[30s]) and on (device,instance) ceph_disk_occupation{ceph_daemon="osd.0"} + +See the prometheus documentation for more information about constructing +queries. + +Note that for this mechanism to work, Ceph and node_exporter must agree +about the values of the ``instance`` label. See the following section +for guidance about to to set up Prometheus in a way that sets +``instance`` properly. + +Configuring Prometheus server +============================= + +See the prometheus documentation for full details of how to add +scrape endpoints: the notes +in this section are tips on how to configure Prometheus to capture +the Ceph statistics in the most usefully-labelled form. + +This configuration is necessary because Ceph is reporting metrics +from many hosts and services via a single endpoint, and some +metrics that relate to no physical host (such as pool statistics). + +honor_labels +------------ + +To enable Ceph to output properly-labelled data relating to any host, +use the ``honor_labels`` setting when adding the ceph-mgr endpoints +to your prometheus configuration. + +Without this setting, any ``instance`` labels that Ceph outputs, such +as those in ``ceph_disk_occupation`` series, will be overridden +by Prometheus. + +Ceph instance label +------------------- + +By default, Prometheus applies an ``instance`` label that includes +the hostname and port of the endpoint that the series game from. Because +Ceph clusters have multiple manager daemons, this results in an ``instance`` +label that changes spuriously when the active manager daemon changes. + +Set a custom ``instance`` label in your Prometheus target configuration: +you might wish to set it to the hostname of your first monitor, or something +completely arbitrary like "ceph_cluster". + +node_exporter instance labels +----------------------------- + +Set your ``instance`` labels to match what appears in Ceph's OSD metadata +in the ``hostname`` field. This is generally the short hostname of the node. + +This is only necessary if you want to correlate Ceph stats with host stats, +but you may find it useful to do it in all cases in case you want to do +the correlation in the future. + +Example configuration +--------------------- + +This example shows a single node configuration running ceph-mgr and +node_exporter on a server called ``senta04``. + +This is just an example: there are other ways to configure prometheus +scrape targets and label rewrite rules. + +prometheus.yml +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +:: + + global: + scrape_interval: 15s + evaluation_interval: 15s + + scrape_configs: + - job_name: 'node' + file_sd_configs: + - files: + - node_targets.yml + - job_name: 'ceph' + honor_labels: true + file_sd_configs: + - files: + - ceph_targets.yml + + +ceph_targets.yml +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + + +:: + + [ + { + "targets": [ "senta04.mydomain.com:9283" ], + "labels": { + "instance": "ceph_cluster" + } + } + ] + + +node_targets.yml +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +:: + + [ + { + "targets": [ "senta04.mydomain.com:9100" ], + "labels": { + "instance": "senta04" + } + } + ] + + +Notes +===== + +Counters and gauges are exported; currently histograms and long-running +averages are not. It's possible that Ceph's 2-D histograms could be +reduced to two separate 1-D histograms, and that long-running averages +could be exported as Prometheus' Summary type. + +Timestamps, as with many Prometheus exporters, are established by +the server's scrape time (Prometheus expects that it is polling the +actual counter process synchronously). It is possible to supply a +timestamp along with the stat report, but the Prometheus team strongly +advises against this. This means that timestamps will be delayed by +an unpredictable amount; it's not clear if this will be problematic, +but it's worth knowing about. |
