Implementation is agent less.
Data source is ovirt_engine_history database which is part of Data Warehouse on oVirt/RHV Virtualization Manager.
Tool accesses the ovirt_engine_history database remotely via its SQL API.
ovirt_engine_history database contains only historical performance data. There is only the admin account which we use.
Use this version
xormon-ng-1.6.17.tar.gz preferably if there is not any newer one available. There was fixed a few minor issues
OS Prerequisites
-
Open network connection to the RedHat Virtualization Manager on port 5432
- Make sure you have installed perl modules: perl-DBI and perl-DBD-Pg on XorMon NG server
Skip that on the Virtual Appliance
# RedHat / Rocky Linux
rpm -q perl-DBD-Pg
perl-DBD-Pg-2.19.3-4.el7.x86_64
# Debian / Ubuntu
dpkg-query -W libdbd-pg-perl
libdbd-pg-perl 3.18.0-1.pgdg120+1
Install them if they are missing under root user
- Linux RedHat, CentOS
- Linux Debian, Ubuntu
apt-get install libdbd-pg-perl
Database access
Each Virtualization Manager has its own randomly generated password for ovirt_engine_history database.
To get the database password, you have to connect to your RHV / oVirt engine via SSH and run this command:
# grep DWH_DB_PASSWORD /etc/ovirt-engine-dwh/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/10-setup-database.conf
DB username should be ovirt_engine_history by default, check it with this command:
# grep DWH_DB_USER /etc/ovirt-engine-dwh/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/10-setup-database.conf
ovirt_engine_history
XorMon NG storage configuration
-
Add oVrit / RHV / OLVM from the UI:
XorMon NG UI ➡ Settings icon ➡ Device ➡ Server Virtualization ➡ RHV/oVirt ➡ New ➡
- Run "Test" for configured storage device, it must show "OK"
-
Wait about 1 hour, then reload the web browser, you should see it in XorMon NG UI
