BeeGFS on Demand collector

BeeGFS on Demand collector

This Collector is to collect BeeGFS on Demand (BeeOND) storage stats.

  "beegfs_storage": {
	"beegfs_path": "/usr/bin/beegfs-ctl",
    "exclude_filesystem": [
      "/mnt/ignore_me"
    ],
    "exclude_metrics": [     
          "ack",
		  "storInf",
		  "unlnk"
    ]
  }

The BeeGFS On Demand (BeeOND) collector uses the beegfs-ctl command to read performance metrics for BeeGFS filesystems.

The reported filesystems can be filtered with the exclude_filesystem option in the configuration.

The path to the beegfs-ctl command can be configured with the beegfs_path option in the configuration.

When using the exclude_metrics option, the excluded metrics are summed as other.

Important: The metrics listed below, are similar to the naming of BeeGFS. The Collector prefixes these with beegfs_cstorage_(beegfs client meta). For example beegfs metric open-> beegfs_cstorage_

Note: BeeGFS FS offers many Metadata Information. Probably it makes sense to exlcude most of them. Nevertheless, these excluded metrics will be summed as beegfs_cstorage_other.

Available Metrics:

• “sum”
• “ack”
• “sChDrct”
• “getFSize”
• “sAttr”
• “statfs”
• “trunc”
• “close”
• “fsync”
• “ops-rd”
• “MiB-rd/s”
• “ops-wr”
• “MiB-wr/s”
• “endbg”
• “hrtbeat”
• “remNode”
• “storInf”
• “unlnk”

The collector adds a filesystem tag to all metrics
