# Cluster Monitoring stack for ARM / X86-64 platforms

The Prometheus Operator for Kubernetes provides easy monitoring definitions for Kubernetes services and deployment and management of Prometheus instances.

This have been tested on a hybrid ARM64 / X84-64 Kubernetes cluster deployed as [this article](https://medium.com/@carlosedp/building-a-hybrid-x86-64-and-arm-kubernetes-cluster-e7f94ff6e51d).

This repository collects Kubernetes manifests, Grafana dashboards, and Prometheus rules combined with documentation and scripts to provide easy to operate end-to-end Kubernetes cluster monitoring with Prometheus using the Prometheus Operator. 

The content of this project is written in jsonnet and is an extension of the fantastic [kube-prometheus](https://github.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/blob/master/contrib/kube-prometheus) project.

To continue using my previous stack with manifests and previous versions of the operator and components, use the legacy repo tag from: https://github.com/carlosedp/prometheus-operator-ARM/tree/legacy.

Components included in this package:

* The Prometheus Operator
* Highly available Prometheus
* Highly available Alertmanager
* Prometheus node-exporter
* kube-state-metrics
* CoreDNS
* Grafana
* SMTP relay to Gmail for Grafana notifications

There are additional modules (disabled by default) to monitor other components of the infra-structure. These can be disabled on `vars.jsonnet` file by setting the module in `installModules` to `false`.

The additional modules are:

* ARM_exporter to generate temperature metrics
* MetalLB metrics
* Traefik metrics
* ElasticSearch metrics
* APC UPS metrics

There are also options to set the ingress domain suffix and enable persistence for Grafana and Prometheus.

After changing these parameters, rebuild the manifests with `make`.

## Quickstart

The repository already provides a set of compiled manifests to be applied into the cluster. The deployment can be customized thru the jsonnet files.

To simply deploy the stack, run:

```bash
$ make deploy

# Or manually:

$ kubectl apply -f manifests/

# It can take a few seconds for the above 'create manifests' command to fully create the following resources, so verify the resources are ready before proceeding.
$ until kubectl get customresourcedefinitions servicemonitors.monitoring.coreos.com ; do date; sleep 1; echo ""; done
$ until kubectl get servicemonitors --all-namespaces ; do date; sleep 1; echo ""; done

$ kubectl apply -f manifests/ # This command sometimes may need to be done twice (to workaround a race condition).
```

If you get an error from applying the manifests, run the `make deploy` or `kubectl apply -f manifests/` again. Sometimes the resources required to apply the CRDs are not deployed yet.

## Customizing for K3s

To have your [K3s](https://github.com/rancher/k3s) cluster and the monitoring stack on it, deploy K3s with `curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -`.

Now to deploy the monitoring stack on your K3s cluster, there are three parameters to be configured on `vars.jsonnet`:

1. Set `k3s.enabled` to `true`.
2. Change your K3s master node IP(your VM or host IP) on `k3s.master_ip`.
3. Edit `suffixDomain` to have your node IP with the `.nip.io` suffix. This will be your ingress URL suffix.

After changing these values, run `make` to build the manifests and `k3s kubectl apply -f manifests/` to apply the stack to your cluster. In case of errors on some resources, re-run the command.

If you already have the manifests and don't want to rebuilt from Jsonnet, just run `make ingressip IP="[IP-ADDRESS]"` to change the IP for the ingress routes for Grafana, Prometheus and Alertmanager. Re-apply the ingress manifests after this.

Now you can open the applications: 
* Grafana on [https://grafana.[your_node_ip].nip.io](https://grafana.[your_node_ip].nip.io), 
* Prometheus on [https://prometheus.[your_node_ip].nip.io](https://prometheus.[your_node_ip].nip.io) 
* Alertmanager on [https://alertmanager.[your_node_ip].nip.io](https://alertmanager.[your_node_ip].nip.io)

## Customizing

The content of this project consists of a set of jsonnet files making up a library to be consumed.

### Pre-reqs

The project requires json-bundler and the jsonnet compiler. The Makefile does the heavy-lifting of installing them. You need [Go](https://golang.org/dl/) already installed:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/carlosedp/prometheus-operator-ARM
cd prometheus-operator-ARM
make vendor
# Change the jsonnet files...
make
```

After this, a new customized set of manifests is built into the `manifests` dir. To apply to your cluster, run:

```bash
make deploy
```

To uninstall, run:

```bash
make teardown
```
