Cluster Monitoring Operator

The Cluster Monitoring Operator manages and updates the Prometheus-based monitoring stack deployed on top of OpenShift.

It contains the following components:

• Prometheus Operator
• Prometheus
• Alertmanager cluster for cluster and application level alerting
• kube-state-metrics
• node_exporter

The deployed Prometheus Operator is meant to be leveraged by users to easily deploy new Prometheus setup for their application monitoring. The Prometheus instance (prometheus-k8s) is responsible for monitoring and alerting on cluster and OpenShift components. It should not be extended to monitor user applications. Alertmanager is a cluster-global component for handling alerts generated by all Prometheus instances deployed in that cluster.

Metrics are collected from the following components

• kube-state-metrics
• node_exporter
• Kubelets
• API server
• Prometheus (just prometheus-k8s for now)
• Alertmanager

Important: The Prometheus Operator managed by the Cluster Monitoring Operator will by default only look for ServiceMonitor resources in namespaces containing an openshift.io/cluster-monitoring label (with any value).

Contributing new component integrations

The Cluster Monitoring Operator has many builtin ServiceMonitor resources which enable discovering the metrics endpoints of a variety of well-known components.

To register a new builtin component, make the following changes:

• Add a new ServiceMonitor manifest file to assets/prometheus-k8s following the existing prometheus-k8s-service-monitor-$COMPONENT.yaml naming convention.
• Add a constant in pkg/manifests/manifests.go which points to the new manifest file.
• Add a new Factory method in pkg/manifests/manifests.go which loads the manifest using the new constant.
• Add a step to PrometheusTask in pkg/tasks/prometheus.go which creates the ServiceMonitor using the Factory new method.

To add a new builtin alerting rule:

• Add a new Prometheus rules file to rules/k8s.

Run make generate after you modify the files and make sure to add the modified files to the commit.

Roadmap

• Monitor etcd
• Adapt Tectonic inherited alerts with OpenShift operational knowledge
