Enhancing Ceph Monitoring at CERN: Our Approach and Solutions - Roberto Valverde Cameselle & Enrico Bocchi, CERN
At CERN, effective monitoring of Ceph storage systems is essential for maintaining service availability and seamless operations.
This presentation will share our experience in enhancing Ceph base monitoring focusing on improvements such as CephFS client visibility, S3 multi-site synchronization status and error tracking. We will discuss about our approach to tackle the challenges of long-term metric storage and the integration of legacy monitoring tools. Additionally, we will showcase our multi-layered alerting strategy which utilizes different communication channels based on the severity of the alerts. Finally we will talk about how we leverage the recently built new data center to enhance the high availability of our monitoring and alerting system.
