benoit 7286638121 -e/endpoints spec update
* it is now possible to specify a comma separated list of endpoints
* the documentation as been updated to explain that:
  + for node services if several addresses are specified they should
    point to different interfaces on the same server.
  + for cluster services several addresses should be used because we
    want the cluster status so the more API we try the better our chance
    of having a reply.

check_patroni

A nagios plugin for patroni.

Features

  • Check presence of leader, replicas, node counts.
  • Check each node for replication status.
Usage: check_patroni [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

  Nagios plugin that uses Patroni's REST API to monitor a Patroni cluster.

Options:
  --config FILE         Read option defaults from the specified INI file
                        [default: config.ini]
  -e, --endpoints TEXT  Patroni API endpoint. Can be specified multiple times
                        or as a list of comma separated addresses. The node
                        services checks the status of one node, therefore if
                        several addresses are specified they should point to
                        different interfaces on the same node. The cluster
                        services check the status of the cluster, therefore
                        it's better to give a list of all Patroni node
                        addresses.  [default: http://127.0.0.1:8008]
  --cert_file TEXT      File with the client certificate.
  --key_file TEXT       File with the client key.
  --ca_file TEXT        The CA certificate.
  -v, --verbose         Increase verbosity -v (info)/-vv (warning)/-vvv
                        (debug)
  --version
  --timeout INTEGER     Timeout in seconds for the API queries (0 to disable)
                        [default: 2]
  --help                Show this message and exit.

Config file

All global and service specific parameters can be specified via a config file has follows:

[options]
endpoints = https://10.20.199.3:8008, https://10.20.199.4:8008,https://10.20.199.5:8008
cert_file = ./ssl/my-cert.pem
key_file = ./ssl/my-key.pem
ca_file = ./ssl/CA-cert.pem
timeout = 0

[options.node_is_replica]
lag=100

Thresholds

The format for the threshold parameters is [@][start:][end].

  • start: may be omitted if start == 0
  • ~: means that start is negative infinity
  • If end is omitted, infinity is assumed
  • To invert the match condition, prefix the range expression with @.

A match is found when: start <= VALUE <= end.

For example, the following command will raise:

  • a warning if there is less than 1 nodes, wich can be translated to outside of range [2;+INF[
  • a critical if there are no nodes, wich can be translated to outside of range [1;+INF[
check_patroni -e https://10.20.199.3:8008 cluster_has_replica --warning 2: --critical 1:

Cluster services

cluster_config_has_changed

Usage: check_patroni cluster_config_has_changed [OPTIONS]

  Check if the hash of the configuration has changed.

  Note: either a hash or a state file must be provided for this service to
  work.

  Check:
  * `OK`: The hash didn't change
  * `CRITICAL`: The hash of the configuration has changed compared to the input (`--hash`) or last time (`--state_file`)

  Perfdata:
  * `is_configuration_changed` is 1 if the configuration has changed

Options:
  --hash TEXT            A hash to compare with.
  -s, --state-file TEXT  A state file to store the hash of the configuration.
  --save                 Set the current configuration hash as the reference
                         for future calls.
