Prerequisites

No action required.

Configuration

File

There is no configuration file.

Options

There are no configuration options.

Metrics

Metrics grouped by scope.

The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.

Per MD RAID instance

This scope has no labels.

Metrics:

Metric Dimensions Unit
md.health a dimension per md array failed disks

Per md array

Labels:

Label Description
device TBD
raid_level TBD

Metrics:

Metric Dimensions Unit
md.disks inuse, down disks
md.mismatch_cnt count unsynchronized blocks
md.status check, resync, recovery, reshape percent
md.expected_time_until_operation_finish finish_in seconds
md.operation_speed speed KiB/s
md.nonredundant available boolean

Alerts

The following alerts are available:

Alert name On metric Description
mdstat_last_collected md.disks number of seconds since the last successful data collection
mdstat_disks md.disks number of devices in the down state for the ${label:device} ${label:raid_level} array. Any number > 0 indicates that the array is degraded.
mdstat_mismatch_cnt md.mismatch_cnt number of unsynchronized blocks for the ${label:device} ${label:raid_level} array
mdstat_nonredundant_last_collected md.nonredundant number of seconds since the last successful data collection
