Project Information
Prometheus Integration
Purpose
Prometheus server can monitor various metrics and provide an observation of the Antrea Controller and Agent components. The doc provides general guidelines to the configuration of Prometheus server to operate with the Antrea components.
About Prometheus
Prometheus is an open source monitoring and alerting server. Prometheus is capable of collecting metrics from various Kubernetes components, storing and providing alerts. Prometheus can provide visibility by integrating with other products such as Grafana.
One of Prometheus capabilities is self-discovery of Kubernetes services which expose their metrics. So Prometheus can scrape the metrics of any additional components which are added to the cluster without further configuration changes.
Antrea Configuration
Enable Prometheus metrics listener by setting enablePrometheusMetrics
parameter to true in the Controller and the Agent configurations.
Prometheus Configuration
Prometheus version
Prometheus integration with Antrea is validated as part of CI using Prometheus v2.19.3.
Prometheus RBAC
Prometheus requires access to Kubernetes API resources for the service discovery capability. Reading metrics also requires access to the “/metrics” API endpoints.
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
name: prometheus
rules:
- apiGroups: [""]
resources:
- nodes
- nodes/proxy
- services
- endpoints
- pods
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch"]
- apiGroups:
- networking.k8s.io
resources:
- ingresses
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch"]
- nonResourceURLs: ["/metrics"]
verbs: ["get"]
Antrea Metrics Listener Access
To scrape the metrics from Antrea Controller and Agent, Prometheus needs the following permissions
kind: ClusterRole
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: prometheus-antrea
rules:
- nonResourceURLs:
- /metrics
verbs:
- get
Antrea Components Scraping configuration
Add the following jobs to Prometheus scraping configuration to enable metrics
collection from Antrea components. Antrea Agent metrics endpoint is exposed through
Antrea apiserver on apiport
config parameter given in antrea-agent.conf
(default
value is 10350). Antrea Controller metrics endpoint is exposed through Antrea apiserver
on apiport
config parameter given in antrea-controller.conf
(default value is 10349).
