From 5e21bb0d2415de0a40adfaa3b149313c459e7947 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: varac Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 14:57:58 +0200 Subject: Don't use check_mk logwatch to watch bigcouch logs anymore (#7375) The rationale here is: - bigcouch/its included erlang version is incredibly noisy and spits out warnings/error msgs all the time - it uses the worst logging format i ever saw, multiple lines directly to a file (couch 2.0 uses lager as logging backend which can log to syslog) - trying to sort out the false positives will take too much time, and who knows which of them will be resolved in couch 1.6/2.0 Change-Id: Idbe6b37a19cd65ce31a50d4c28eedb4cf15ba3b5 --- puppet/modules/site_check_mk/manifests/agent/couchdb.pp | 16 ++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'puppet/modules/site_check_mk') diff --git a/puppet/modules/site_check_mk/manifests/agent/couchdb.pp b/puppet/modules/site_check_mk/manifests/agent/couchdb.pp index abfc7ad0..8de5121b 100644 --- a/puppet/modules/site_check_mk/manifests/agent/couchdb.pp +++ b/puppet/modules/site_check_mk/manifests/agent/couchdb.pp @@ -1,9 +1,17 @@ +# configure logwatch and nagios checks for couchdb class site_check_mk::agent::couchdb { - # watch logs - file { '/etc/check_mk/logwatch.d/bigcouch.cfg': - source => 'puppet:///modules/site_check_mk/agent/logwatch/bigcouch.cfg', - } + # watch bigcouch logs + # currently disabled because bigcouch is too noisy + # see https://leap.se/code/issues/7375 for more details + # and site_config::remove_files for removing leftovers + #file { '/etc/check_mk/logwatch.d/bigcouch.cfg': + # source => 'puppet:///modules/site_check_mk/agent/logwatch/bigcouch.cfg', + #} + + # check syslog msg from: + # - empd + # - /usr/local/bin/couch-doc-update concat::fragment { 'syslog_couchdb': source => 'puppet:///modules/site_check_mk/agent/logwatch/syslog/couchdb.cfg', target => '/etc/check_mk/logwatch.d/syslog.cfg', -- cgit v1.2.3
