Hi,
I've attached the templates I've built for monitoring backends and
frontends of haproxy.
To install these, you will need to copy the XML files from the contrib/
directory of the haproxy distribution into a directory that Cacti can
reach, and edit the Data Queries "HaProxy Backends" and "HAProxy
Frontends" accordingly (the "XML Path" field. It's also dependant on
having a version of net-snmp that supports embedded Perl, and including
the "perl do 'path_to_haproxy.pl';" directive in your snmpd.conf file.
As for what is created:
- For the devices, you have two new data queries to choose from, they
can be added from the Devices page for each device, at the very end in
the drop-down box, then click "Add". The data queries are called
"HaProxy Backends" and "HAProxy Frontends".
- From "HaProxy Backends": in the new graphs page, you can choose which
backend to graph, and create one of two graphs:
- Haproxy backend traffic: ingress and egress bytes.
- Haproxy backend sessions: total sessions with _reponse_ errors.
- From "HAProxy Frontends": in the new graphs page again, you can choose
which frontend to graph, which will include aggregated data for the
backends behind it, obviously. You can create one of two graphs:
- Haproxy frontend traffic: ingress and egress bytes.
- Haproxy frontend sessions: total sessions with _request_ errors.
In the graphs and data sources, limits are set to reasonably high values
to support up to nearly 10G traffic, and up to 10000 concurrent
connections.

It's sometimes very useful to be able to monitor a production status in real
time by comparing servers behaviours. Now halog is able to do this when called
with "-srv". It reports various fields for each server found in a log, including
statuses, total reqs, valid reqs, percent of valid reqs, average connection time,
average response time.
A new idea came up to detect the presence of a null byte in a word.
It saves several operations compared to the previous one, and eliminates
the jumps (about 6 instructions which can run 2-by-2 in parallel).
This sole optimisation improved the line count speed by about 30%.
All files referencing the previous ebtree code were changed to point
to the new one in the ebtree directory. A makefile variable (EBTREE_DIR)
is also available to use files from another directory.
The ability to build the libebtree library temporarily remains disabled
because it can have an impact on some existing toolchains and does not
appear worth it in the medium term if we add support for multi-criteria
stickiness for instance.
Currently there is a ~16KB limit for a data size passed via unix socket.
It is caused by a trivial bug ttat is going to fixed soon, however
in most cases there is no need to dump a full stats.
This patch makes possible to select a scope of dumped data by extending
current "show stat" to "show stat [<iid> <type> <sid>]":
- iid is a proxy id, -1 to dump all proxies
- type selects type of dumpable objects: 1 for frontend, 2 for backend, 4 for
server, -1 for all types. Values can be ORed, for example:
1+2=3 -> frontend+backend.
1+2+4=7 -> frontend+backend+server.
- sid is a service id, -1 to dump everything from the selected proxy.
To do this I implemented a new session flag (SN_STAT_BOUND), added three
variables in data_ctx.stats (iid, type, sid), modified dumpstats.c and
completely revorked the process_uxst_stats: now it waits for a "\n"
terminated string, splits args and uses them. BTW: It should be quite easy
to add new commands, for example to enable/disable servers, the only problem
I can see is a not very lucky config name (*stats* socket). :|
During the work I also fixed two bug:
- s->flags were not initialized for proto_uxst
- missing comma if throttling not enabled (caused by a stupid change in
"Implement persistent id for proxies and servers")
Other changes:
- No more magic type valuse, use STATS_TYPE_FE/STATS_TYPE_BE/STATS_TYPE_SV
- Don't memset full s->data_ctx (it was clearing s->data_ctx.stats.{iid/type/sid},
instead initialize stats.sv & stats.sv_st (stats.px and stats.px_st were already
initialized)
With all that changes it was extremely easy to write a short perl plugin
for a perl-enabled net-snmp (also included in this patch).
29385 is my PEN (Private Enterprise Number) and I'm willing to donate
the SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.29385.106.* OIDs for HAProxy if there
is nothing assigned already.
