Ceph Exporter

Prometheus exporter that scrapes meta information about a running ceph cluster. All the information gathered from the cluster is done by interacting with the monitors using an appropriate wrapper over rados_mon_command(). Hence, no additional setup is necessary other than having a working ceph cluster.

Dependencies

You should ideally run this exporter from the client that can talk to Ceph. Like any other ceph client it needs the following files to run correctly.

• ceph.conf containing your ceph configuration.
• ceph.<user>.keyring in order to authenticate to your cluster.

Ceph exporter will automatically pick those up if they are present in any of the default locations. Otherwise you will need to provide the configuration manually using --ceph.config flag.

We use Ceph's official Golang client to run commands on the cluster.

Flags

Name	Description	Default
