StorageGRID Webscale Monitoring Stack

Introduction

This repository contains a simple monitoring stack for StorageGRID Webscale. This is not a fully production ready stack.

The containerized setup is based on:

• Logstash
• Elasticsearch
• Grafana

Configuration

1. Your StorageGRID Webscale Audit Logs need to be mounted on the Docker host under /mnt/auditlogs/.
   • If desired, you may specify a path to any directory containing a valid audit.log by modifying volume /mnt/auditlogs:/mnt/auditlogs in docker-compose.yml to /desired/directory:/mnt/auditlogs.
2. Elasticsearch requires alot of memory, so make sure your Docker host provides enough by executing sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144 on the host (click here for more details).
3. To make use of StorageGRID's Prometheus metrics, open port 9090 on the admin node by executing run-host-command ufw allow 9090.

Usage

• Start the stack via ./startup.sh.
• Terminate the stack via ./shutdown.sh.
• Grafana is accessible at http://<dockerhost>:3000/, the login credentials are admin/admin.
• After initial deployment, log into Grafana, go to Data Sources, select es-sgaudit, and click Save & Test (this tells Grafana to re-validate the data source). You must also select the sg-prometheus data source, enter the IP address of the admin node as indicated in the URL field, and click Save & Test.
• The dashboard will be automatically redployed.
• The current dashboard configuration can be exported via update-dashboard.sh, which updates grafana/dashboards/storagegrid-webscale-monitoring.json.
