Project Description

A supportconfig provides a lot of files and data from the system, but it is often hard to spot the real issue in it. The idea of this project is to get machine-readable output for the supportconfig data and analyze them.

Then we would try to provide hints using the tool about what is wrong.

The name of this tool is: uyuni-health-check.

GitHub repository: https://github.com/uyuni-project/poc-uyuni-health-check

Summary:

  • Research about machine learning log anomaly detectors: few alternatives out there.
  • Getting custom metrics for Salt and Uyuni via prometheus exporter from live server.
  • Setting up Loki to process relevant Uyuni logs from live server.
  • Allow data visualization with Grafana.
  • Really easy-to-use CLI tool to run "health checks" and get feedback.

Details:

  • Grafana, Loki, Uyuni prometheus exporter and all other components run on "containers"
  • The containers run on the Uyuni server. "podman" is required on the server.
  • CLI tool takes care of building and deploying the "container" image to the server, collect the metrics and provide output on the command line.
  • Prometheus / Grafana expose containers metrics.

Goals for Hackweek #23

  • Enhance and collect more Uyuni / Salt metrics.
  • Use "supportconfig" as source for logs/metrics instead of live server.

Achievements during HW #23

Goals for Hackweek #22

  • Improve CLI and performance.
  • Fix memory leak on "uyuni-health-exporter".
  • Complete automated deployment of Loki and other containers.

Achievements during HW #22:

  • Fix memory leak on uyuni-health-exporter.
  • Fix python packaging and installation.
  • Deploy grafana and prometheus dashboard.
  • Fix loki and promtail deployments.
  • Run all containers in the same POD.
  • Unify console logging across deployment functions.
  • More friendly CLI with new functions.
  • Containers are not wiped by default after executions.
  • Minor and cosmetic changes.
  • Update README.md to reflect latest changes

Goals for this Hackweek #21

  • Getting a machine readable version of supportconfig
  • First analysis and tweaking
