Monitoring iostat performance
Recently, we had a publicly visible outtage as a result of one of our load balancers exceeding the IOPS capability of its system drives. We'd like to extend xymon (currently installed on CentOS6 /32 with defaults) so that it can monitor IOPS for all servers.
Specifically, we'd like to see wrqm/s and probably %util. What's the most straightforward way to accomplish this? The other alternative is to create some form of internal script, which is doable but not preferable if there's an off-the-shelf tool available.

Not specifically "off-the-shelf", but it's not too difficult to script it up. We do it in a three-step process due to load, but it could be done more simply with custom script on the servers themselves that combine #1 and #2 together and send trends messages back to xymond directly.
- Add iostat/iostatx into xymonclient-linux.sh via the /local/ directory. We have the following two scripts in place:
[localhost:~xymon/local/]$ head iostat* ==> iostat <== #!/bin/sh
iostat is in the sysstat package
echo "iostat -N 300 2 1>$XYMONTMP/xymon_iostat.$MACHINEDOTS.$$ 2>&1; mv $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostat.$MACHINEDOTS.$$ $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostat.$MACHINEDOTS 2>&1" | nohup sh >/dev/null & if test -f $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostat.$MACHINEDOTS; then cat $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostat.$MACHINEDOTS; rm -f $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostat.$MACHINEDOTS; fi
==> iostatx <== #!/bin/sh
iostat is in the sysstat package
echo "iostat -Nx 300 2 1>$XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatx.$MACHINEDOTS.$$ 2>&1; mv $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatx.$MACHINEDOTS.$$ $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatx.$MACHINEDOTS 2>&1" | nohup sh >/dev/null & if test -f $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatx.$MACHINEDOTS; then cat $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatx.$MACHINEDOTS; rm -f $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatx.$MACHINEDOTS; fi
That looks scary, but it basically what the vmstat lines in the built-in code are doing (although we alter it so the output of 'ps' looks cleaner). This results in sections labelled "[iostat]" and "[iostatx]" (well, '[local:iostat]') in the client data stream for the server.
- We have a separate script that listens on the "client" channel via xymond_channel and looks for linux systems with the above section in them (which is the raw output of the iostat command(s)). It munges those into a "trends" data message like this:
data <hostname>.trends [iostatx.sda.rrd] DS:reads:GAUGE:600:0:U 1036.10 DS:writes:GAUGE:600:0:U 534.77 DS:util:GAUGE:600:0:U 100.00 [iostatx.rootvg-rootlv.rrd] DS:reads:GAUGE:600:0:U 0.00 DS:writes:GAUGE:600:0:U 3.31 DS:util:GAUGE:600:0:U 0.01 [iostatx.rootvg-swaplv.rrd] DS:reads:GAUGE:600:0:U 0.00 DS:writes:GAUGE:600:0:U 0.00 DS:util:GAUGE:600:0:U 0.00 [iostatx.rootvg-glidelv.rrd] DS:reads:GAUGE:600:0:U 1036.10 DS:writes:GAUGE:600:0:U 534.26 DS:util:GAUGE:600:0:U 100.00
- xymond_rrd does what it needs to do to turn these into RRD files, and we have config files in /graphs.d/ to print them nicely:
[iostatx] FNPATTERN ^iostatx.(.*).rrd TITLE Disk IO Transactions YAXIS Trans/s DEF:r at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:reads:AVERAGE DEF:w at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:writes:AVERAGE LINE2:r at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM@ LINE2:w at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM@ GPRINT:r at RRDIDX@:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:r at RRDIDX@:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:r at RRDIDX@:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:r at RRDIDX@:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n GPRINT:w at RRDIDX@:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:w at RRDIDX@:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:w at RRDIDX@:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:w at RRDIDX@:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

- xymond_rrd can alert directly out of these using the 'DS' option in analysis.cfg files to override an existing test (we use 'disk', since it seems to make the most sense).
That's basically it.... The results look like the graphs attached. Hope this helps!

Ouch!
We'd like to extend xymon (currently installed on CentOS6 /32 with defaults) so that it can monitor IOPS for all servers.
I like this idea. I looked into this quite a while ago, but really only scratched the surface.
Specifically, we'd like to see wrqm/s and probably %util. What's the most straightforward way to accomplish this? The other alternative is to create some form of internal script, which is doable but not preferable if there's an off-the-shelf tool available.
Whether an add-on or a new Xymon feature, this would almost certainly require a new section in the client data. There's already an [iostatdisk] section used by Solaris and an [iostat] section used by "larrd", although the format for the latter is a bit funky. So you could replicate either of these for Linux by adding this into xymonclient-linux.sh:
nohup sh -c "iostat -x 300 2 1>$XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatdisk.$MACHINEDOTS.$$ 2>&1; mv $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatdisk.$MACHINEDOTS.$$ $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatdisk.$MACHINEDOTS" </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 & if test -f $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatdisk.$MACHINEDOTS; then echo "[iostatdisk]"; cat $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatdisk.$MACHINEDOTS; rm -f $XYMONTMP/xymon_iostatdisk.$MACHINEDOTS; fi
We might want "-kx" rather than "-x" depending on potential uses. But doesn't matter for %util and wrqm/s. Adding "-N" (for translating device names to LVM mappings) might also be useful.
The Xymon parsing code has support only for Solaris. That means it isn't readily extensible. For other client data sections, the parsing code typically has a case statement that selects the OS and then parses according to that. Not the case for iostatdisk or iostat.
In fact, the function that does the parsing - do_iostatdisk_rrd() - is never called anywhere. So there's a fair bit of work required within Xymon to get it to work. I'd suggest we get the client side going, then writing a server-side ext script to emulate the parsing code (feeding into a trends message for RRD), and then start work on core support for iostatdisk within xymond.
It's probably a bit more complicated than that. Henrik may have a vision for universal support of I/O statistics which may be incompatible with what I'm proposing. Also, we would probably want to maintain compatibility with the existing [iostat] graph.cfg definition (the only one that uses the iostat/iostatdisk results), and that means creating RRD files that are consistent with the DS names and purposes already in use. Also, we may find that metrics we want to graph are inconsistent with metrics already defined for the Solaris case that already exists. Also, we'd need to define a new graph to show the numbers you're interested in, because the [iostat] graph only shows active/wait service times and %busy. I think %busy is analogous to %util.
Implementing this kind of thing in such a way that it supports the majority of OSes, without too much effort, and without significant conflicts, is quite a challenge. I suspect that's the reason we don't have anything in the way of I/O usage in Xymon. I've often wondered if using "sar" is a better way to go, because the output is more (but not completely) consistent across platforms, and so the parsing code would be simpler and smaller. Sar is now available on more OSes than ever before, so we're more likely to see support from hosts we monitor. Clients would just do a few standard "sar" commands to create client data sections (eg [sar-d] [sar-b], or even [sar-A] for all available output) and Xymon would implement a small handful of standardised "sar" parsers. Just an idea.

I put his together sometime back. It's not perfect, but it gives a reasonable indication of what's happening. Might be a good place to start, or at very least give you some ideas. https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/monitors:diskstat.ksh It's Solaris specific, but there is one for Linux, written by Wim Nelis, in perl. https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/monitors:diskstat.pl

Thanks to everyone for your feedback!
Figured I'd give this a shot, but I can't seem to diagnose what's going on. There's no apparent change in our xymon install. We're running 4.3.7.
I've verified that both pl scripts are in the $xymonhome/server/ext/ directory on the server and $xymonhome/client/ext/ perl is installed, and the scripts are chown $xymonuser and chmod u+x.
I've edited the scripts to use our company name instead of stanwell. (do you have an errant graph?)
I'm assuming this would create an additional column on the overview page, or maybe an additional graph under trends.... See comments interspersed below, to document the process I went through for any other parties. (I'm using CentOS 6.5, all updates applied

*Almost*! I get a graph under "trends" but for some reason the graph comes up with numbers all being blank or "nan". I'm setting this up on a nonproduction server, so I've tried generating some disk activity to make sure it's not a divide by zero error or something.
I wish my perl foo was a bit more up to snuff.
