Running the SVCi as Container Podman POD stack

Start SVCI, InfluxDB and Grafana as container with podman pod:

Create a pod with network between the containers and export ports for grafana and influxdb.

💡 Traffic out from container is normally allowed.

podman pod create -n virtualize_metric_stack -p 8086:8086 -p 3000:3000
podman run --name influxdb -d -p 8086:8086 --pod virtualize_metric_stack influxdb:latest
podman run --name grafana -d --pod virtualize_metric_stack grafana/grafana

Starting the SVCi - Virtualize Metric Container.

Create a folder that contains the svi.toml Crate the svci.toml file with with your credentials/token for influxdb and flashsystem, se example below.

# Run interactive to check.
podman run -i --name virtualize_exporter --pod virtualize_metric_stack  --volume ${PWD}/data:/opt/app/config/ ghcr.io/mnellemann/svci:main

See that you get output "[main] InfluxClient"

Run container in background

# Run in background
podman run --name virtualize_exporter -d --pod virtualize_metric_stack  --volume ${PWD}/data:/opt/app/config/ ghcr.io/mnellemann/svci:main
💡 Run container with options 
podman run --name virtualize_exporter -pod virtualize_metric_stack --volume ${PWD}/data:/opt/app/config/ ghcr.io/mnellemann/svci:main java -jar /opt/app/svci.jar/svci-latest.jar -c /opt/app/config/svci.toml -d

Check status of the Virtualize_Metric POD:

Check that all containers is running with podman ps --pods

podman ps --pod

To get logs from the virtualize_exporter you can use podman logs

podman logs -f virtualize_exporter

To log into the container use: exec -it with /bin/sh

podman exec -it virtualize_exporter /bin/sh

Example Create the config file for Virtualize_Metric Container.

We are providing a config file to supply the SVCi/Virtualize Metric with an IP and a user. This will enable it to connect to both the Flashsystem/SVC and InfluxDB.

Create a Main folder to store the config file. in the example we are using mainfolder virtualize-metric and data. place the config file, svci.toml inside data folder.

% pwd                     
-/virtualize-metric
% ls
data
% ls         
svci.toml

💡 You could also created a container volume and add the config file.

Example Config Virtualize_Metric Container

Example for influxDB and one storage system.

💡 To monitor more then one storage system just duplicated the [svc.xx] part.

# SVCi Configuration

# InfluxDB to save metrics
[influx]
url = "http://localhost:8086"
# for InfluxDB V1 use Username and Password
#username = "admin"
#password = "adminadmin24"
bucket = "svci"
# for InfluxDB V2 use token
token = "hiD739k61IhU0Z2zrqQYMR6TCk1Tj3yhgmXZt9-dlNyzxxYyyKC1XXqc1InLYWnQZyaK6tIfj7ATT_feREPMGA=="

## Notice:  use hostname without Http and port, default to 7443 and 22 for scp
[svc.fs5200]
hostname = "10.10.10.50"
username = "monitoruser"
password = "SuperDuperPassword!"
refresh = 30
trust = true   # Ignore SSL cert. errors

###
### Define one or more SVC's to query for metrics
### Each entry must be named [svc.<something-unique>]
