Re: Gluster monitoring

    We have been using zabbix for tracking gluster but  that works
    because we are using zabbix for the rest of our monitoring of things
    like network and disk IO.
    
    One thing to track that is not part of the usual suspects is the
    heal counts.
    They should always be 0 unless you have a problem somewhere.

Hello

 How do you keep track of the health status of your Gluster volumes? When Brick went down (crash, failure, shutdown), node failure, peering issue, on-going healing?

Gluster Tendrl is complex and sometimes it's broken, Prometheus exporter still lacking, gstatus is basic.

Currently, to monitor a Gluster volume, a custom script should be used to gather whatever info needed for monitoring or a combination of the mentioned tools.

Can Gluster have something similar to Ceph and display the health of the entire cluster? I know Ceph uses it’s “Monitors” to keep track of everything going inside the cluster, but Gluster should also have a way to keep track of the cluster’s health.

How’s the community experience with Gluster monitoring? How are you managing and tracking alerts and issues? Any recommendations?

Thank you.
