Prerequisites​

To control your Redis Sentinel, the Poller should be able to perform redis-cli requests over the TCP/26379 port (by default). The following commands are used:

  • sentinel ckquorum <cluster_name>
  • sentinel masters
  • sentinel replicas <cluster_name>
  • sentinel sentinels <cluster_name>

Setup​

  1. Install the Centreon package on every Centreon poller expected to monitor Redis Sentinel resources:
yum install centreon-plugin-Applications-Redis-Sentinel
  1. On the Centreon Web interface, install the Redis Sentinel Centreon Pack on the Configuration > Monitoring Connector Manager page.

How to check in the CLI that the configuration is OK and what are the main options for?​

Once the plugin is installed, log into your Centreon Poller CLI using the centreon-engine user account and test the Plugin by running the following command:

/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_redis_sentinel.pl \
--plugin=apps::redis::sentinel::plugin \
--server='10.0.0.1' \
--port='26379' \
--mode=redis-clusters \
--filter-cluster-name='' \
--verbose

The expected command output is shown below:

OK: cluster 'mymaster' number of detected slaves: 2, subjectively down instances: 0, objectively down instances: 0 - slave replication offset standard deviation: 843.00 - All redis instances are ok | 'mymaster#cluster.redis.slaves.detected.count'=2;;;0; 'mymaster#cluster.redis.subjectively_down.count'=0;;;0; 'mymaster#cluster.redis.objectively_down.count'=0;;;0; 'cluster.redis.slave_replication_offset.stddev.count'=843.00;;;; 'mymaster~10.25.52.107:6379#cluster.redis.ping_ok.latency.milliseconds'=1024s;;;0; 'mymaster~10.25.52.90:6379#cluster.redis.ping_ok.latency.milliseconds'=185s;;;0; 'mymaster~10.25.52.98:6379#cluster.redis.ping_ok.latency.milliseconds'=355s;;;0;

All available options for a given mode can be displayed by adding the --help parameter to the command:

/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_redis_sentinel.pl \
--plugin=apps::redis::sentinel::plugin \
--mode=redis-clusters \
--help

All available options for a given mode can be displayed by adding the --list-mode parameter to the command:

/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_redis_sentinel.pl \
--plugin=apps::redis::sentinel::plugin \
--list-mode
