Prometheus statistics

Each contiv-agent exposes statistics in Prometheus format at port 9999 by default. Exposed data is split into two groups:

  • /stats provides statistics for VPP interfaces managed by contiv-agent Prometheus data is a set of counters with labels. For each interface, the following counters are exposed:

    • inPackets
    • outPackets
    • inBytes
    • outBytes
    • ipv4Packets
    • ipv6Packets
    • outErrorPackets
    • dropPackets
    • inMissPackets
    • inNobufPackets
    • puntPackets

    Labels allows to add additional information to a counter. The interfaceName and node labels are specified for all counters. If an interface is associated with a particular pod, the podName and podNamespace labels are also specified for its counters; otherwise, a placeholder value (--) is used (for example, for node interconnect interfaces).

  • /metrics provides general go runtime statistics

In order to access Prometheus stats of a node you can use curl localhost:9999/stats from the node The output of contiv-agent running at k8s master node looks similar to

$ curl localhost:9999/stats

In order to browse stats in web UI prometheus can be started locally following the guide.

If you start prometheus on a node, the following sample config can be used:

global:
  scrape_interval:     15s

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'contiv_stats'
    metrics_path: '/stats'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:9999']
  - job_name: 'contiv_agent'
    # metrics_path defaults to '/metrics'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:9999']

Once Prometheus is started with the specified config you should be able access its web UI at localhost:9090.

tester@dev:~/Downloads/prometheus-2.1.0.linux-amd64$ ./prometheus --config.file=config.yml

If security features is enabled for the HTTP endpoint the config must be adjusted:

 - job_name: 'contiv_secured'

     scheme: https
     basic_auth:
        username: user
        password: pass
     metrics_path: /stats
     tls_config:
       insecure_skip_verify: true
       # CA certificate to validate API server certificate with.
       #[ ca_file: <filename> ]
     static_configs:
       - targets: ['localhost:9191']
