Prometheus监控学习笔记之解读prometheus监控kubernetes的配置文件

0x00 概述

Prometheus 是一个开源和社区驱动的监控&报警&时序数据库的项目。来源于谷歌BorgMon项目。现在最常见的Kubernetes容器管理系统中，通常会搭配Prometheus进行监控。主要监控：

• Node:如主机CPU，内存，网络吞吐和带宽占用，磁盘I/O和磁盘使用等指标。node-exporter采集。
• 容器关键指标:集群中容器的CPU详细状况，内存详细状况，Network，FileSystem和Subcontainer等。通过cadvisor采集。
• Kubernetes集群上部署的应用：监控部署在Kubernetes集群上的应用。主要是pod，service，ingress和endpoint。通过black-box和kube-apiserver的接口采集。

prometheus自身提供了一些资源的自动发现功能，下面是我从官方github上截图，罗列了目前提供的资源发现：

由上图可知prometheus自身提供了自动发现kubernetes的监控目标的功能。相应，配置文件官方也提供了一份，今天我们就解读一下该配置文件。

0x01 配置文件解读

 首先直接上官方的配置文件：

# A scrape configuration for running Prometheus on a Kubernetes cluster.
# This uses separate scrape configs for cluster components (i.e. API server, node)
# and services to allow each to use different authentication configs.
#
# Kubernetes labels will be added as Prometheus labels on metrics via the
# `labelmap` relabeling action.
#
# If you are using Kubernetes 1.7.2 or earlier, please take note of the comments
# for the kubernetes-cadvisor job; you will need to edit or remove this job.

# Scrape config for API servers.
#
# Kubernetes exposes API servers as endpoints to the default/kubernetes
# service so this uses `endpoints` role and uses relabelling to only keep
# the endpoints associated with the default/kubernetes service using the
# default named port `https`. This works for single API server deployments as
# well as HA API server deployments.

- job_name: 'kubernetes-apiservers'

  - role: endpoints

  # Default to scraping over https. If required, just disable this or change to
  # `http`.

  # This TLS & bearer token file config is used to connect to the actual scrape
  # endpoints for cluster components. This is separate to discovery auth
  # configuration because discovery & scraping are two separate concerns in
  # Prometheus. The discovery auth config is automatic if Prometheus runs inside
  # the cluster. Otherwise, more config options have to be provided within the

当然该配置文件，是在prometheus部署在k8s中生效的,即in-cluster模式。

0x02 kubernetes-apiservers

该项主要是让prometheus程序可以访问kube-apiserver，进而进行服务发现。看一下服务发现的代码可以看出，主要服务发现：node，service，ingress，pod。

0x03 kubernetes-nodes

发现node以后，通过/api/v1/nodes/${1}/proxy/metrics来获取node的metrics。

 

0x04 kubernetes-cadvisor

cadvisor已经被集成在kubelet中，所以发现了node就相当于发现了cadvisor。通过 /api/v1/nodes/${1}/proxy/metrics/cadvisor采集容器指标。

 

0x05 kubernetes-services和kubernetes-ingresses

该两种资源监控方式差不多，都是需要安装black-box，然后类似于探针去定时访问，根据返回的http状态码来判定service和ingress的服务可用性。
PS：不过我自己在这里和官方的稍微有点区别，

- target_label: __address__
      replacement: blackbox-exporter.example.com:9115

官方大致是需要我们要创建black-box 的ingress从外部访问，这样从效率和安全性都不是最合适的。所以我一般都是直接内部dns访问。如下

- target_label: __address__
      replacement: blackbox-exporter.kube-system:9115

当然看源码可以发现，并不是所有的service和ingress都会健康监测，如果需要将服务进行健康监测，那么你部署应用的yaml文件加一些注解。例如：
对于service和ingress：
需要加注解：prometheus.io/scrape: 'true'

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  annotations:
    prometheus.io/scrape: 'true'
  name: prometheus-node-exporter
  namespace: kube-system
  labels:
    app: prometheus
    component: node-exporter
spec:
  clusterIP: None
  ports:
    - name: prometheus-node-exporter
      port: 9100
      protocol: TCP
  selector:
    app: prometheus
    component: node-exporter
  type: ClusterIP

0x06 kubernetes-pods

对于pod的监测也是需要加注解：

• prometheus.io/scrape，为true则会将pod作为监控目标。
• prometheus.io/path，默认为/metrics
• prometheus.io/port , 端口

所以看到此处可以看出，该job并不是监控pod的指标，pod已经通过前面的cadvisor采集。此处是对pod中应用的监控。写过exporter的人应该对这个概念非常清楚。通俗讲，就是你pod中的应用提供了prometheus的监控功能，加上对应的注解，那么该应用的metrics会定时被采集走。

0x07 kubernetes-service-endpoints

对于服务的终端节点，也需要加注解：

• prometheus.io/scrape，为true则会将pod作为监控目标。
• prometheus.io/path，默认为/metrics
• prometheus.io/port , 端口
• prometheus.io/scheme 默认http，如果为了安全设置了https，此处需要改为https

这个基本上同上的。采集service-endpoints的metrics。

个人认为：如果某些部署应用只有pod没有service，那么这种情况只能在pod上加注解，通过kubernetes-pods采集metrics。如果有service，那么就无需在pod加注解了，直接在service上加即可。毕竟service-endpoints最终也会落到pod上。

0x08 总结

配置项总结

• kubernetes-service-endpoints和kubernetes-pods采集应用中metrics，当然并不是所有的都提供了metrics接口。
• kubernetes-ingresses 和kubernetes-services 健康监测服务和ingress健康的状态
• kubernetes-cadvisor 和 kubernetes-nodes，通过发现node，监控node 和容器的cpu等指标

自动发现源码

参考client-go和prometheus自动发现k8s，这种监听k8s集群中资源的变化，使用informer实现，不要轮询kube-apiserver接口。

该配置文件需要部署一些组件来支持prometheus对k8s的监控，例如black-exporter。因为要自动发现，获取集群的一些信息，所以也要做rbac的授权。具体参考：
github
