Install the monitoring stack

Anbox Cloud Documentation
1

Anbox Cloud provides a reference for a monitoring stack based on Prometheus, Grafana and Telegraf. In order to simplify and speed up the deployment of Anbox Cloud itself, the reference monitoring stack is provided as a separate overlay file.

Core Deployment

To integrate the monitoring stack into either a fresh or an existing Anbox Cloud Core deployment, copy the following code snippet into a monitoring.yaml file.

applications:
  grafana-proxy:
    charm: 'cs:haproxy'
    num_units: 1
    expose: true
    options:
      default_mode: tcp
      peering_mode: active-active
      ssl_cert: SELFSIGNED
      ssl_key: SELFSIGNED
      services: |
        - service_name: app-grafana
          service_host: "0.0.0.0"
          service_port: 443
          service_options:
            - mode http
            - http-request set-path %[path,regsub(^/grafana/?,/)]
            - balance leastconn
          server_options: check verify none inter 2000 rise 2 fall 5 maxconn 4096
          crts: [DEFAULT]
        - service_name: http_service
          service_host: "0.0.0.0"
          service_port: 80
          service_options:
            - mode http
            - http-request redirect scheme https
    to:
      - '2'

  prometheus:
    charm: 'cs:prometheus2-18'
    num_units: 1
    to:
      - '2'

  ams-monitor:
    charm: 'cs:telegraf-39'
    options:
      tags: region=cloud-0
      prometheus_output_port: "20003"

  lxd-monitor:
    charm: 'cs:telegraf-39'
    options:
      tags: region=cloud-0
      prometheus_output_port: "20004"

  grafana:
    charm: 'cs:grafana-36'
    num_units: 1
    options:
      root_url: '%(protocol)s://%(domain)s:%(http_port)s/grafana'
    to:
      - '2'

  - ['ams:prometheus', 'prometheus:scrape']
  - ['grafana:grafana-source', 'prometheus:grafana-source']
  - ['grafana-proxy:reverseproxy', 'grafana:website']
  - ['lxd-monitor:prometheus-client', 'prometheus:target']
  - ['lxd-monitor:juju-info', 'lxd:juju-info']
  - ['ams-monitor:prometheus-client', 'prometheus:target']
  - ['ams-monitor:juju-info', 'ams:juju-info']
  - ['ams:grafana', 'grafana:dashboards']

machines:
  '0':
    series: focal
    constraints: "cpu-cores=4 mem=8G root-disk=100G"
  '1':
    series: focal
    constraints: "cpu-cores=8 mem=16G root-disk=200G"
  '2':
    series: focal
    constraints: "cpu-cores=4 mem=4G root-disk=100G"

The ideal requirements for the machine for monitoring stack deployment are the following:

ID Architecture CPU cores RAM Disk GPUs COMPONENTs
2 amd64 4 4GB 100GB SSD no Grafana, Prometheus

Then deploy the Anbox Cloud Core bundle with the overlay file:

$ juju deploy cs:~anbox-charmers/anbox-cloud-core --overlay monitoring.yaml

The monitoring stack will be available after all added units end up with the active status.

Streaming Stack Deployment

For the monitoring stack integration either for a fresh or an existing Anbox Cloud Streaming Stack deployment, the overlay file is quite similar to what you use for monitoring stack integration for core deployment but with minor further modifications. Just copy the following code snippet
into a monitoring.yaml file.

applications:
  grafana-proxy:
    charm: 'cs:haproxy'
    num_units: 1
    expose: true
    options:
      default_mode: tcp
      peering_mode: active-active
      ssl_cert: SELFSIGNED
      ssl_key: SELFSIGNED
      services: |
        - service_name: app-grafana
          service_host: "0.0.0.0"
          service_port: 443
          service_options:
            - mode http
            - http-request set-path %[path,regsub(^/grafana/?,/)]
            - balance leastconn
