Prometheus - Monitoring System & Time Series Database
=====================================================
Overview
~~~~~~~~
Kolla can deploy a full working Prometheus setup in either a **all-in-one** or
**multinode** setup.
Preparation and deployment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To enable Prometheus, modify the configuration file ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``
and change the following:
.. code-block:: yaml
enable_prometheus: "yes"
Extending the default command line options
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is possible to extend the default command line options for Prometheus by
using a custom variable. As an example, to set remote timeouts to 30 seconds
and data retention period to 2 days:
.. code-block:: yaml
prometheus_cmdline_extras: "-storage.remote.timeout 30s -storage.local.retention 48h"

Extending prometheus.cfg
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you want to add extra targets to scrape, you can extend the default
``prometheus.yml`` config file by placing additional configs in
``{{ node_custom_config }}/prometheus/prometheus.yml.d``. These should have the
same format as ``prometheus.yml``. These additional configs are merged so
that any list items are extended. For example, if using the default value for
``node_custom_config``, you could add additional targets to scape by defining
``/etc/kolla/config/prometheus/prometheus.yml.d/10-custom.yml`` containing the
following:
.. code-block:: jinja
scrape_configs:
- job_name: custom
static_configs:
- targets:
- '10.0.0.111:1234'
- job_name: custom-template
static_configs:
- targets:
{% for host in groups['prometheus'] %}
- '{{ hostvars[host]['ansible_' + hostvars[host]['api_interface']]['ipv4']['address'] }}:{{ 3456 }}'
{% endfor %}
The jobs, ``custom``, and ``custom_template`` would be appended to the default
list of ``scrape_configs`` in the final ``prometheus.yml``. To customize on a per
host basis, files can also be placed in
``{{ node_custom_config }}/prometheus/<inventory_hostname>/prometheus.yml.d``
where, ``inventory_hostname`` is one of the hosts in your inventory. These
will be merged with any files in ``{{ node_custom_config }}/prometheus/prometheus.yml.d``,
so in order to override a list value instead of extending it, you will need to make
sure that no files in ``{{ node_custom_config }}/prometheus/prometheus.yml.d``
set a key with an equivalent hierarchical path.

Extra files
~~~~~~~~~~~
Sometimes it is necessary to reference additional files from within
``prometheus.yml``, for example, when defining file service discovery
configuration. To enable you to do this, kolla-ansible will resursively
discover any files in ``{{ node_custom_config }}/prometheus/extras`` and
template them. The templated output is then copied to
``/etc/prometheus/extras`` within the container on startup. For example to
configure `ipmi_exporter <https://github.com/soundcloud/ipmi_exporter>`_, using
the default value for ``node_custom_config``, you could create the following
files:
- ``/etc/kolla/config/prometheus/prometheus.yml.d/ipmi-exporter.yml``:
.. code-block:: jinja
---
scrape_configs:
- job_name: ipmi
params:
module: ["default"]
scrape_interval: 1m
scrape_timeout: 30s
metrics_path: /ipmi
scheme: http
file_sd_configs:
- files:
- /etc/prometheus/extras/file_sd/ipmi-exporter-targets.yml
refresh_interval: 5m
relabel_configs:
- source_labels: [__address__]
separator: ;
regex: (.*)
target_label: __param_target
replacement: ${1}
action: replace
- source_labels: [__param_target]
separator: ;
regex: (.*)
target_label: instance
replacement: ${1}
action: replace
- separator: ;
regex: .*
target_label: __address__
replacement: "{{ ipmi_exporter_listen_address }}:9290"
action: replace
where ``ipmi_exporter_listen_address`` is a variable containing the IP address of
the node where the exporter is running.
- ``/etc/kolla/config/prometheus/extras/file_sd/ipmi-exporter-targets.yml``:
.. code-block:: yaml

- targets:
- 192.168.1.1
labels:
job: ipmi_exporter
