v-agent

Overview

v-agent is a daemon that gathers metrics and writes them to a compatible remote_write endpoint.

It acts like prometheus (scraping metrics), re-labeling metrics, then pushing them off to a remote_write compatible endpoint. Internally, we use mimir and write our metrics there but other implementations should work.

Metrics

All metrics that are specifically created with v-agent are prefixed with v_. Scraped metrics are not modified other than the addition of labels.

Every metric will have all metrics in labels_config added to it. The following are special labels:

  • hostname: Pulled automatically. Set with HOSTNAME environment variable or os.Hostname()
  • subid: The subscription ID for the underlying service. Can be set in config.yaml. If it's not set an attempt is made to pull it from metadata API.
  • vpsid: The VPS ID. Can be set in config.yaml. If it's not set an attempt is made to pull it from the metadata API.

The above labels are added to ensure that the metric is unique. A lack of uniqueness can result in metrics getting overwritten/clobbered.

System metrics that are collected:

  • CPU utilization: system, user, steal, utilization, etc.
  • Memory utilization: cached, buffered, utilization, etc.
  • Load average: 1, 5, 15, and tasks
  • Disk stats: writes/reads, etc.
  • Filesystem stats: bytes, inodes, utilization
  • NIC: bytes, packets, errors, etc.

Kubernetes:

  • v_kube_apiserver_healthy that is 0 (if healthy) or 1 if not healthy based on response from kube-apiserver /healthz endpoint.
  • Every metric from /metrics

Etcd:

  • v_etcd_healthy that is 0 (if healthy) or 1 if not healthy based on response from etcd /health endpoint.
  • Every metric from /metrics

Konnectivty:

  • v_konnectivity_healthy that is 0 (if healthy) or 1 if not healthy based on response from konnectivity /healthz endpoint.
  • Every metric from /metrics

HAProxy:

  • v_haproxy_healthy that is 0 (if healthy) or 1 if not healthy based on response from /metrics endpoint.
  • Every metric from /metrics

Ceph:

  • v_ceph_healthy: Not implemented yet.
  • Every metric from /metrics

Usage

Configuration is through config.yaml, sample:

debug: true                      # debug output
interval: 60                     # interval to scrape metrics
endpoint: https://endpoint...    # remote endpoint
basic_auth_user: ""              # basic auth user
basic_auth_pass: ""              # basic auth pass
check_vendor: false              # when true, vendor must be "Vultr"; set to false otherwise
labels_config:                   # any labels below will be added to all metrics
  hostname: ""                   # empty string uses local hostname, unset (nil) doesnt use, non-empty string uses specified label
  subid: ""                      # empty string pulls from userdata, unset (nil) doesnt use, non-empty string uses specified label
  vpsid: ""                      # empty string pulls from userdata, unset (nil) doesnt use, non-empty string uses specified label
  product: vke                   # unset (nil) doesnt use, non-empty string uses specified label. Note: This label is used to determine subid for vke/vlb/vfs
  any: any                       # any key/value label

      enabled: false
      namespace: gpu-operator        # namespace
      endpoint: nvidia-dcgm-exporter # name of the endpoint: k get endpoints

Currently, it's not 100% compatible with Kubernetes, that is to say running inside k8s and able to scrape k8s metrics. Right now it's largely an agent used to scrape metrics for services.

Building

Note: Agent must be built with cgo disabled, not doing so will result in GLIBC errors being thrown: CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -o v-agent cmd/v-agent/main.go
