Container monitoring (docker, lxc)

XMLWordPrintable

      Please provide support of container monitoring (not just docker, but some general solution) out of the box. IMHO containers can be handled like VM:

      • discovery of containers
      • CPU metrics: CPU user, CPU system
      • MEM metrics: ...
      • NET metrics: ...
      • IOP metrics: ....

      Some metrics are available only if kernel is configured properly, otherwise metric can be unsupported. Also some of metric (network) can need root permissions - see resource 1.

      Resources:
      1.) gathering container metrics

      2.) zabbix module docker (alpha release)

      3.) google go implementation of container monitoring
