* app/vmalert: extend metrics set exported by `vmalert` #573
New metrics were added to improve observability:
+ vmalert_alerts_pending{alertname, group} - number of pending alerts per group
per alert;
+ vmalert_alerts_acitve{alertname, group} - number of active alerts per group
per alert;
+ vmalert_alerts_error{alertname, group} - is 1 if alertname ended up with error
during prev execution, is 0 if no errors happened;
+ vmalert_recording_rules_error{recording, group} - is 1 if recording rule
ended up with error during prev execution, is 0 if no errors happened;
* vmalert_iteration_total{group, file} - now contains group and file name labels.
This should improve control over specific groups;
* vmalert_iteration_duration_seconds{group, file} - now contains group and file name labels. This should improve control over specific groups;
Some collisions for alerts and recording rules are possible, because neither
group name nor alert/recording rule name are unique for compatibility reasons.
Commit contains list of TODOs for Unregistering metrics since groups and rules
are ephemeral and could be removed without application restart. In order to
unlock Unregistering feature corresponding PR was filed - https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/metrics/pull/13
* app/vmalert: extend metrics set exported by `vmalert` #573
The changes are following:
* add an ID label to rules metrics, since `name` collisions within one group is
a common case - see the k8s example alerts;
* supports metrics unregistering on rule updates. Consider the case when one rule
was added or removed from the group, or the whole group was added or removed.
The change depends on https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/metrics/pull/16
where race condition for Unregister method was fixed.
`external.label` flag supposed to help to distinguish alert or recording rules
source in situations when more than one `vmalert` runs for the same datasource
or AlertManager.
This function works with both Prometheus-style and VictoriaMetrics-style buckets.
The function removes buckets with the lowest values in order to reserve the highest precision.
The function is useful for building heatmaps in Grafana from too big number of buckets.
Previously the time spent on inverted index search could exceed the configured `-search.maxQueryDuration`.
This commit stops searching in inverted index on query timeout.
Previously the enabled relabeling with `-relabelConfig` command-line flag could result in missing labels
if a single Influx line protocol message contains multiple field values.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/638
This should prvent from inflated `increase()` results for time series that start from big initial values.
Such cases may occur when a label value changes in a metric without counter reset.
Previously multiple goroutines could access remoteWriteCtx.tss concurrently, which could lead to data race
and improper relabeling. Now each goroutine has its own copy of tss during relabeling.

* review: returen *queriesMap in newQueriesMap
* review: delete unused var in struct queriesMap, add comments to exported functions
* review: add return if error occurs
* feat(vmselect): truncate query string in current running query list API since the size of query string might be large;
use query string's pointer in struct `query` for the same reason;
add query info API to get full access of query's info;
Heavy queries could result in the lack of CPU resources for processing the current data ingestion stream.
Prevent this by delaying queries' execution until free resources are available for data ingestion.
Expose `vm_search_delays_total` metric, which may be used in for alerting when there is no enough CPU resources
for data ingestion and/or for executing heavy queries.

* app/vmalert: add retries to remotewrite
Remotewrite pkg now does limited number of retries if write request failed.
This suppose to make vmalert state persisting more reliable.
New metrics were added to remotewrite in order to track rows/bytes sent/dropped.
defaultFlushInterval was increased from 1s to 5s for sanity reasons.

* app/vmalert: support multiple notifier urls (#584)
User now can set multiple notifier URLs in the same fashion
as for other vmutils (e.g. vmagent). The same is correct for
TLS setting for every configured URL. Alerts sending is done
in sequential way for respecting the specified URLs order.
* app/vmalert: add basicAuth support for notifier client (#585)
The change adds possibility to set basicAuth creds for notifier
client in the same fasion as for remote write/read and datasource.
The change adds no new functionality and aims to move flags definitions
to subpackages that are using them. This should improve readability
of the main function.
Previously vminsert may spread data for a single time series across all the available vmstorage nodes
when vmstorage nodes couldn't handle the given ingestion rate. This could lead to increased usage
of CPU and memory on every vmstorage node, since every vmstorage node had to register all the time
series seen in the cluster. Now a time series may spread to maximum two vmstorage nodes under heavy load.
Every time series is routed to a single vmstorage node under normal load.
As per documentation on `label_replace` function: "If the regular
expression doesn't match then the timeseries is returned unchanged".
Currently this behavior is not enforced, if a regexp on an existing
tag doesn't match then the tag value is copied as-is in the destination
tag. This fix first checks that the regular expression matches the
source tag before applying anything.
Given the current implementation, this fix also changes the behavior
of the **MetricsQL** `label_transform` function which does not
document this behavior at the moment.
app/vmalert: add support for TLS configuration
Add support for TLS optional configuration in a similar fashion to what
is currently supported in other vmutils such as vmagent. TLS
configuration options are distinct for datasource, remoteRead,
remoteWrite as well as notifier.
Previously VictoriaMetrics was processing up to 32 time series in a single goroutine.
This could be slow if each time series contains big number of data points (10M+ or more), since only a single CPU core could be loaded with work,
while other CPU cores were idle. Fix this by launching GOMAXPROCS workers for time series processing.
This should help with https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/572
These actions may be useful for filtering out unneeded targets and/or metrics if they contain equal label values.
For example, the following rule would leave the target only if __meta_kubernetes_annotation_prometheus_io_port
equals __meta_kubernetes_pod_container_port_number:
- action: keep_if_equal
source_labels: [__meta_kubernetes_annotation_prometheus_io_port, __meta_kubernetes_pod_container_port_number]
app/vmalert: Support custom URL for alerts source
Add flag `external.alert.source` for configuring custom URL
for alert's source. This may be handy to re-point default source
URL to other systems like Grafana.
Updates #517
Uniqueness of rule is now defined by combination of its name, expression and
labels. The hash of the combination is now used as rule ID and identifies rule within the group.
Set of rules from coreos/kube-prometheus was added for testing purposes to
verify compatibility. The check also showed that `vmalert` doesn't support
`query` template function that was mentioned as limitation in README.
The feature allows to speed up group rules execution by
executing them concurrently.
Change also contains README changes to reflect configuration
details.
Previously it was possible that the connection is served after the server is closed if the following
steps are performed:
1) Server accepts new connection.
2) Server.MustClose() is called and successfully finished.
3) Server starts processing the connection accepted at step 1. There could be various crashes
like in https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/534 since the storage may be already closed.
Now the server closes the connection at step 3 without processing it.
* feat(vmselect): add tmp block dir size metrics `vm_tmp_blocks_files_size_total`
* refactor(vmselect): use free space instead of used space in tmp block file metrics
* fix: add `bytes` suffix to tmp dir free space metric
* vmalert: Add recording rules support.
Recording rules support required additional service refactoring since
it wasn't planned to support them from the very beginning. The list
of changes is following:
* new entity RecordingRule was added for writing results of MetricsQL
expressions into remote storage;
* interface Rule now unites both recording and alerting rules;
* configuration parser was moved to separate package and now performs
more strict validation;
* new endpoint for listing all groups and rules in json format was added;
* evaluation interval may be set to every particular group;
* vmalert: uncomment tests
* vmalert: rm outdated TODO
* vmalert: fix typos in README
Previously such rows were distributed to the original storage node or to the next storage node.
This may result to uneven load among the remaining storage nodes.
Previously vminsert could write multiple copies of the data to a single vmstorage node when the ingestion rate
exceeds the maximum throughput for connections to vmstorage nodes.
