[pve-devel] [PATCH-SERIES cluster/common/qemu-server/lxc/manager] add new metric stats in single rrd

[Alexandre Derumier]

Hi,

I'm still working on vm balancing/scheduling, and need some new metrics.

This patch-series add new metrics stats in rrd

- cpu,mem,io pressure for qemu/lxc/host
- hostcpu/hostmem cgroup for qemu
- ksm

as we discussed last year, theses new metrics are pushed in single rrd files,
like proxmox backup server.

The paths are :

pve2-metrics/vms/<vmid>/<metric>
pve2-metrics/nodes/<node>/<metric>
pve2-metrics/storages/<node>/<storage>/<metric>

but you don't actually need the metrics themselves but only the computed
moving avg result and such of them? Because if that's the case we could just
keep the last X values we require for the moving window cached locally in
pvestatd and use those to broadcast the calculated ones use for DRS once or
twice every minute or so via the per-node kv status in the pvestatd?

Could mean less data an no new RRD format/paths (iow. no touching of
pve-cluster at all). What do you think?

Re: [pve-devel] [PATCH-SERIES cluster/common/qemu-server/lxc/manager] add new metric stats in single rrd

[DERUMIER, Alexandre]

Hi Thomas,

for pressure, I don't really need rrd or history, as I can already
broadcast last 10s,60s, 300s.
so could simply broadcast them in kvstore.

This was the original patch in 2020
https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2020-October/045493.html

but Dietmar asked about to put them in rrd ;)

So, as you want, just tell me :)

I don't care about rrd for my need. 

Anyway, For vm balancing, I was planning to compute average metric
instead parsing at lot of rrd.


for ksm, I really need current value

for qemu hostcpu/hostmem, last (1-5) minutes average could be enough,
so I could compute from pvestatd too.

[pve-devel] [PATCH-SERIES common/qemu-server/lxc/manager] brodcast new metric stats in kvstore

[Alexandre Derumier]

Hi,

I'm still working on vm balancing/scheduling, and need some new metrics.

As suggested by Thomas, instead sending values to new rrd,
and then reparse rrd later in balancer, we broadcast:

- last minute && last 5 min average cpu/ram of qemu/lxc/node
- pressure average of cpu/mem/io for qemu/lxc/node

Theses values are broadcast each minute in 1 kvstore key "balancer-stats"

Size of broadcasted "balancer-stats" is around : 500bytes * number vms.

Size of in memory hash for average values is around : 6k (host+mem) * number vms.
(for last minute, we keep each X seconds iteration, for last 5min we keep last 5x1min average)


- last ksm value
This value is broadcast each iteration is a separate kvstore key "ksm"
