PVC Node Monitoring Resources
This directory contains several monitoring resources that can be used with various monitoring systems to track and alert on a PVC cluster system.
Munin
The included munin plugin can be activated by linking to it from /etc/munin/plugins/pvc. By default, this plugin triggers a CRITICAL state when either the PVC or Storage cluster becomes Degraded, and is otherwise OK. The overall health is graphed numerically (Optimal is 0, Maintenance is 1, Degraded is 2) so that the cluster health can be tracked over time.
When using this plugin, it might be useful to adjust the thresholds with a plugin configuration. For instance, one could adjust the Degraded value from CRITICAL to WARNING by adjusting the critical threshold to a value higher than 1.99 (e.g. 3, 10, etc.) so that only the WARNING threshold will be hit. Alternatively one could instead make Maintenance mode trigger a WARNING by lowering the threshold to 0.99.
Example plugin configuration:
[pvc]
# Make cluster warn on maintenance
env.pvc_cluster_warning 0.99
# Disable critical threshold (>2)
env.pvc_cluster_critical 3
# Make storage warn on maintenance, crit on degraded (latter is default)
env.pvc_storage_warning 0.99
env.pvc_storage_critical 1.99
