- monitoring/node-install.sh: idempotent per-node installer (sar HISTORY=28, three oneshot timers, per-node conf with qemu.slice/lxc cgroup globs) - monitoring/collectors + systemd units: iotop-snap 15min, perfsnap 60s, psi-textfile 15s (now sources /etc/knelperf/perfsnap.conf; multi-glob) - monitoring/toolbox: pct LXC (vmid 950, privileged, apparmor unconfined, stopped at rest) + knelperf-toolbox wrapper + Dockerfile variant - monitoring/deploy-fleet.sh: workstation-side rollout driver - piloted on pfv-tsys1: per-VM PSI gauges verified live Redmine: https://projects.knownelement.com/issues/826

Continuous lightweight instrumentation for the seven PFV PVE nodes
|
||||
(tsys1/3/4/5/6/7/9) plus a per-node **perf toolbox container** that is
|
||||
stopped at rest and runs on demand. Ultix's instrumentation pattern
|
||||
(60s perfsnap + PSI collectors, containers for deep dives) generalized
|
||||
fleet-wide. AGPLv3, like the whole repo.
|
||||
|
||||
## What lands on a node
|
||||
|
||||
| Piece | Cadence | Data | Where |
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `sysstat` sadc (ships with PVE, tuned here) | 10 min + daily rollup | sar: CPU, mem, disks, net, load | `/var/log/sysstat/saDD` (HISTORY=28) |
|
||||
| `knelperf-perfsnap.sh` | 60 s | load, run/block, memavail, PSI avg60, qemu+lxc cgroup CPU, bridge counters | `/var/log/knelperf-perf/{snap,procs}.log` |
|
||||
| `knelperf-psi-textfile.sh` | 15 s | PSI some60 per guest slice + host (Prometheus textfile format) | `/var/lib/knelperf/textfile/knelperf_pressure.prom` |
|
||||
| `knelperf-iotop-snap.sh` | 15 min | WHO does the I/O sar only aggregates (3×2 s active-only samples) | `/var/log/knelperf-iotop/iotop-YYYYMMDD.log` |
|
||||
|
||||
No reboots, no package installs (sysstat + iotop ship with PVE 9),
|
||||
no daemons — three oneshot systemd timers. Rollback = disable timers +
|
||||
restore `HISTORY=7`. bpftrace/BCC live **inside the toolbox**, never on
|
||||
the hypervisor root.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deploy
|
||||
|
||||
From a tooling host with root SSH to the nodes:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# non-prod first, prod only after the GLPI CR exists
|
||||
bash monitoring/deploy-fleet.sh --toolbox pfv-tsys1 pfv-tsys3 pfv-tsys9
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`--toolbox` additionally creates the per-node LXC (see below). The
|
||||
installer (`monitoring/node-install.sh`) is idempotent — safe to re-run.
|
||||
|
||||
## The toolbox container (vmid 950, `knelperf-toolbox`)
|
||||
|
||||
PVE-native LXC on each node — Debian 12, privileged, apparmor
|
||||
unconfined, bind mounts for host `/proc`, `/sys/fs/cgroup`, debugfs,
|
||||
tracingfs, `/var/log` (ro) and up to 8 block devices. **Stopped at
|
||||
rest; `onboot=0`.** Tools: bpftrace, BCC, sysstat, iotop, sysbench,
|
||||
fio, iperf3, stress-ng, perf, smartmontools, nvme-cli, hwloc…
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
knelperf-toolbox run 'iostat -x 1 5' # starts LXC if stopped
|
||||
knelperf-toolbox run 'bpftrace -e "tracepoint:block:block_rq_issue { @[comm] = count(); }" -c "sleep 5"'
|
||||
knelperf-toolbox run 'sar -A -f /host/var/log/sysstat/sa06' # host sar, offline
|
||||
knelperf-toolbox shell # interactive
|
||||
knelperf-toolbox stop # back to zero footprint
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Docker-capable hosts use the same manifest as an image:
|
||||
`monitoring/toolbox/Dockerfile` → `git.knownelement.com/knel/knelperf-toolbox:v1`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Analysis recipes
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sar -q -f /var/log/sysstat/sa06 # load vs runq
|
||||
sar -d -p -f /var/log/sysstat/sa06 # per-device IO
|
||||
awk -F'|' 'NR>1{print $1, $8, $9, $10}' /var/log/knelperf-perf/snap.log # PSI trend
|
||||
grep -A3 "$(date +%F)" /var/log/knelperf-iotop/iotop-$(date +%Y%m%d).log # io offenders
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `loop/perf-loop.sh` driver consumes these on its `audit` pass;
|
||||
`baseline-diff.sh` compares before/after tweaks. Per-guest PSI
|
||||
(`qemu.slice/*.scope`, `lxc/*`) feeds the placement scorecard
|
||||
(ARCHITECTURE §3).
|
||||
|
||||
## Prod gating
|
||||
|
||||
Prod nodes (tsys4/5/6/7) deploy only after the GLPI CR for this rollout
|
||||
exists and references this directory. Verification evidence goes back on
|
||||
the CR; closing it is human-only.
