Summary : Ansible Metric collection for Performance Co-Pilot
URL : https://github.com/performancecopilot/ansible-pcp
License : MIT
Description : A collection containing roles for Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) and related
: software such as Redis and Grafana. The collection is made up of several
: Ansible roles, including:
:
: oracle.ol_metrics.pcp
: A role for core PCP capabilities, configuring live performance analysis
: with a large base set of metrics from the kernel and system services, as
: well as data recording and rule inference.
:
: oracle.ol_metrics.redis
: A role for configuring a local Redis server, suitable for use with a
: Performance Co-Pilot archive repository (for single or many hosts) and
: fast, scalable querying of metrics.
:
: oracle.ol_metrics.grafana
: A role for configuring a local Grafana server, providing web frontend
: visuals for Performance Co-Pilot metrics, both live and historically.
: Data sources for Vector (live), Redis (historical) and interactive
: bpftrace (eBPF) scripts can be configured by this role. The PCP REST
: API service (from the core pcp role) should be configured in order to
: use this role.
:
: oracle.ol_metrics.bpftrace
: A role that extends the core PCP role, providing metrics from bpftrace
: scripts using Linux eBPF facilities. Configuring authentication of a
: local user capable of running bpftrace scripts via the PCP agent is a
: key task of this role.
:
: oracle.ol_metrics.elasticsearch
: A role that extends the core PCP role, providing metrics from a live
: ElasticSearch instance for PCP analysis or exporting of PCP metric
: values (and metadata) to ElasticSearch for the indexing and querying
: of performance data.
