Description

Last year at NERSC we retired our long-standing nagios-based HPSS monitoring deployment in favor of VictoriaMetrics, Loki and Alertmanager. We would like to share our experience and lessons learned on the way.

  • Motivation for making this transition
    • Limitations of Nagios-style monitoring
    • How does VictoriaMetrics address these?
  • General overview of our monitoring deployment
    • 3rd party exporters
    • Custom exporters/"plugins"
  • Demonstration of some of the dashboards we use and alerts we generate.
  • Future areas of improvement
    • Standardizing our HPSS-specific data collection
    • Service discovery
