Consul monitoring with Netdata
Consul
is a service networking solution to connect and secure services across any runtime
platform and public or private cloud.
This module monitors Consul
health checks.
Metrics
All metrics have "consul." prefix.
Metric | Scope | Dimensions | Units |
---|---|---|---|
service_health_check_status | check | passing, maintenance, warning, critical | status |
unbound_health_check_status | check | passing, maintenance, warning, critical | status |
Configuration
Edit the go.d/consul.conf
configuration file using edit-config
from the
Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata
.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory
sudo ./edit-config go.d/consul.conf
Here is an example for 2 servers:
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://127.0.0.1:8500
- name: remote
url: http://203.0.113.10:8500
For all available options please see module configuration file.
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot issues with the consul
collector, run the go.d.plugin
with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
Navigate to the
plugins.d
directory, usually at/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
. If that's not the case on your system, opennetdata.conf
and look for theplugins
setting under[directories]
.cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
Switch to the
netdata
user.sudo -u netdata -s
Run the
go.d.plugin
to debug the collector:./go.d.plugin -d -m consul
