alertmanager 报警规则详解

这篇文章介绍prometheus和alertmanager的报警和通知规则，prometheus的配置文件名为prometheus.yml，alertmanager的配置文件名为alertmanager.yml

报警：指prometheus将监测到的异常事件发送给alertmanager，而不是指发送邮件通知
通知：指alertmanager发送异常事件的通知（邮件、webhook等）

报警规则

在prometheus.yml中指定匹配报警规则的间隔

# How frequently to evaluate rules.
[ evaluation_interval: <duration> | default = 1m ]

在prometheus.yml中指定规则文件（可使用通配符，如rules/*.rules）

# Load rules once and periodically evaluate them according to the global 'evaluation_interval'.
rule_files:
 - "/etc/prometheus/alert.rules"

并基于以下模板：

ALERT <alert name>
  IF <expression>
  [ FOR <duration> ]
  [ LABELS <label set> ]
  [ ANNOTATIONS <label set> ]

其中：

Alert name是警报标识符。它不需要是唯一的。

Expression是为了触发警报而被评估的条件。它通常使用现有指标作为/metrics端点返回的指标。

Duration是规则必须有效的时间段。例如，5s表示5秒。

Label set是将在消息模板中使用的一组标签。

在prometheus-k8s-statefulset.yaml 文件创建ruleSelector，标记报警规则角色。在prometheus-k8s-rules.yaml 报警规则文件中引用

  ruleSelector:
    matchLabels:
      role: prometheus-rulefiles
      prometheus: k8s

在prometheus-k8s-rules.yaml 使用configmap 方式引用prometheus-rulefiles

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: prometheus-k8s-rules
  namespace: monitoring
  labels:
    role: prometheus-rulefiles
    prometheus: k8s
data:
  pod.rules.yaml: |+
    groups:
    - name: noah_pod.rules
      rules:
      - alert: Pod_all_cpu_usage
        expr: (sum by(name)(rate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total{image!=""}[5m]))*100) > 10
        for: 5m
        labels:
          severity: critical
          service: pods
        annotations:
          description: 容器 {{ $labels.name }} CPU 资源利用率大于 75% , (current value is {{ $value }})
          summary: Dev CPU 负载告警
      - alert: Pod_all_memory_usage
        expr: sort_desc(avg by(name)(irate(container_memory_usage_bytes{name!=""}[5m]))*100) > 1024*10^3*2
        for: 10m
        labels:
          severity: critical
        annotations:
          description: 容器 {{ $labels.name }} Memory 资源利用率大于 2G , (current value is {{ $value }})
          summary: Dev Memory 负载告警
      - alert: Pod_all_network_receive_usage
        expr: sum by (name)(irate(container_network_receive_bytes_total{container_name="POD"}[1m])) > 1024*1024*50
        for: 10m
        labels:
          severity: critical
        annotations:
          description: 容器 {{ $labels.name }} network_receive 资源利用率大于 50M , (current value is {{ $value }})
          summary: network_receive 负载告警

配置文件设置好后，prometheus-opeartor自动重新读取配置。
如果二次修改comfigmap 内容只需要apply

kubectl apply -f prometheus-k8s-rules.yaml

将邮件通知与rules对比一下（还需要配置alertmanager.yml才能收到邮件）

通知规则

设置alertmanager.yml的的route与receivers

global:
  # ResolveTimeout is the time after which an alert is declared resolved
  # if it has not been updated.
  resolve_timeout: 5m

  # The smarthost and SMTP sender used for mail notifications.
  smtp_smarthost: 'xxxxx'
  smtp_from: 'xxxxxxx'
  smtp_auth_username: 'xxxxx'
  smtp_auth_password: 'xxxxxx'
  # The API URL to use for Slack notifications.
  slack_api_url: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/some/api/token'

# # The directory from which notification templates are read.
templates:
- '*.tmpl'

# The root route on which each incoming alert enters.
route:

  # The labels by which incoming alerts are grouped together. For example,
  # multiple alerts coming in for cluster=A and alertname=LatencyHigh would
  # be batched into a single group.

  group_by: ['alertname', 'cluster', 'service']

  # When a new group of alerts is created by an incoming alert, wait at
  # least 'group_wait' to send the initial notification.
  # This way ensures that you get multiple alerts for the same group that start
  # firing shortly after another are batched together on the first
  # notification.

  group_wait: 30s

  # When the first notification was sent, wait 'group_interval' to send a batch
  # of new alerts that started firing for that group.

  group_interval: 5m

  # If an alert has successfully been sent, wait 'repeat_interval' to
  # resend them.

  #repeat_interval: 1m
  repeat_interval: 15m

  # A default receiver

  # If an alert isn't caught by a route, send it to default.
  receiver: default

  # All the above attributes are inherited by all child routes and can
  # overwritten on each.

  # The child route trees.
  routes:
  - match:
      severity: critical
    receiver: email_alert

receivers:
- name: 'default'
  email_configs:
  - to : 'yi.hu@dianrong.com'
    send_resolved: true

- name: 'email_alert'
  email_configs:
  - to : 'yi.hu@dianrong.com'
    send_resolved: true

名词解释

Route

route属性用来设置报警的分发策略，它是一个树状结构，按照深度优先从左向右的顺序进行匹配。

// Match does a depth-first left-to-right search through the route tree
// and returns the matching routing nodes.
func (r *Route) Match(lset model.LabelSet) []*Route {

Alert

Alert是alertmanager接收到的报警，类型如下。

// Alert is a generic representation of an alert in the Prometheus eco-system.
type Alert struct {
    // Label value pairs for purpose of aggregation, matching, and disposition
    // dispatching. This must minimally include an "alertname" label.
    Labels LabelSet `json:"labels"`

    // Extra key/value information which does not define alert identity.
    Annotations LabelSet `json:"annotations"`

    // The known time range for this alert. Both ends are optional.
    StartsAt     time.Time `json:"startsAt,omitempty"`
    EndsAt       time.Time `json:"endsAt,omitempty"`
    GeneratorURL string    `json:"generatorURL"`
}

具有相同Lables的Alert（key和value都相同）才会被认为是同一种。在prometheus rules文件配置的一条规则可能会产生多种报警

Group

alertmanager会根据group_by配置将Alert分组。如下规则，当go_goroutines等于4时会收到三条报警，alertmanager会将这三条报警分成两组向receivers发出通知。

ALERT test1
  IF go_goroutines > 1
  LABELS {label1="l1", label2="l2", status="test"}
ALERT test2
  IF go_goroutines > 2
  LABELS {label1="l2", label2="l2", status="test"}
ALERT test3
  IF go_goroutines > 3
  LABELS {label1="l2", label2="l1", status="test"}

主要处理流程

1. 接收到Alert，根据labels判断属于哪些Route（可存在多个Route，一个Route有多个Group，一个Group有多个Alert）

2. 将Alert分配到Group中，没有则新建Group

3. 新的Group等待group_wait指定的时间（等待时可能收到同一Group的Alert），根据resolve_timeout判断Alert是否解决，然后发送通知

4. 已有的Group等待group_interval指定的时间，判断Alert是否解决，当上次发送通知到现在的间隔大于repeat_interval或者Group有更新时会发送通知

Alertmanager

Alertmanager是警报的缓冲区，它具有以下特征：

可以通过特定端点（不是特定于Prometheus）接收警报。

可以将警报重定向到接收者，如hipchat、邮件或其他人。

足够智能，可以确定已经发送了类似的通知。所以，如果出现问题，你不会被成千上万的电子邮件淹没。

Alertmanager客户端（在这种情况下是Prometheus）首先发送POST消息，并将所有要处理的警报发送到/ api / v1 / alerts。例如：

[
 {
  "labels": {
     "alertname": "low_connected_users",
     "severity": "warning"
   },
   "annotations": {
      "description": "Instance play-app:9000 under lower load",
      "summary": "play-app:9000 of job playframework-app is under lower load"
    }
 }]

alert工作流程

一旦这些警报存储在Alertmanager，它们可能处于以下任何状态：

• Inactive：这里什么都没有发生。

• Pending：客户端告诉我们这个警报必须被触发。然而，警报可以被分组、压抑/抑制或者静默/静音。一旦所有的验证都通过了，我们就转到Firing。

• Firing：警报发送到Notification Pipeline，它将联系警报的所有接收者。然后客户端告诉我们警报解除，所以转换到状Inactive状态。

Prometheus有一个专门的端点，允许我们列出所有的警报，并遵循状态转换。Prometheus所示的每个状态以及导致过渡的条件如下所示：

规则不符合。警报没有激活。

规则符合。警报现在处于活动状态。 执行一些验证是为了避免淹没接收器的消息。

警报发送到接收者

 

接收器 receiver

顾名思义，警报接收的配置。
通用配置格式

# The unique name of the receiver.
name: <string>

# Configurations for several notification integrations.
email_configs:
  [ - <email_config>, ... ]
pagerduty_configs:
  [ - <pagerduty_config>, ... ]
slack_config:
  [ - <slack_config>, ... ]
opsgenie_configs:
  [ - <opsgenie_config>, ... ]
webhook_configs:
  [ - <webhook_config>, ... ]

邮件接收器 email_config

# Whether or not to notify about resolved alerts.
[ send_resolved: <boolean> | default = false ]

# The email address to send notifications to.
to: <tmpl_string>
# The sender address.
[ from: <tmpl_string> | default = global.smtp_from ]
# The SMTP host through which emails are sent.
[ smarthost: <string> | default = global.smtp_smarthost ]

# The HTML body of the email notification.
[ html: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "email.default.html" . }}' ]

# Further headers email header key/value pairs. Overrides any headers
# previously set by the notification implementation.
[ headers: { <string>: <tmpl_string>, ... } ]


Slack接收器 slack_config

# Whether or not to notify about resolved alerts.
[ send_resolved: <boolean> | default = true ]

# The Slack webhook URL.
[ api_url: <string> | default = global.slack_api_url ]

# The channel or user to send notifications to.
channel: <tmpl_string>

# API request data as defined by the Slack webhook API.
[ color: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ if eq .Status "firing" }}danger{{ else }}good{{ end }}' ]
[ username: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "slack.default.username" . }}'
[ title: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "slack.default.title" . }}' ]
[ title_link: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "slack.default.titlelink" . }}' ]
[ pretext: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "slack.default.pretext" . }}' ]
[ text: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "slack.default.text" . }}' ]
[ fallback: <tmpl_string> | default = '{{ template "slack.default.fallback" . }}' ]

Webhook接收器 webhook_config

# Whether or not to notify about resolved alerts.
[ send_resolved: <boolean> | default = true ]

# The endpoint to send HTTP POST requests to.
url: <string>

Alertmanager会使用以下的格式向配置端点发送HTTP POST请求：

{
  "version": "2",
  "status": "<resolved|firing>",
  "alerts": [
    {
      "labels": <object>,
      "annotations": <object>,
      "startsAt": "<rfc3339>",
      "endsAt": "<rfc3339>"
    },
    ...
  ]
}

Inhibition

抑制是指当警报发出后，停止重复发送由此警报引发其他错误的警报的机制。

例如，当警报被触发，通知整个集群不可达，可以配置Alertmanager忽略由该警报触发而产生的所有其他警报，这可以防止通知数百或数千与此问题不相关的其他警报。
抑制机制可以通过Alertmanager的配置文件来配置。

Inhibition允许在其他警报处于触发状态时，抑制一些警报的通知。例如，如果同一警报（基于警报名称）已经非常紧急，那么我们可以配置一个抑制来使任何警告级别的通知静音。 alertmanager.yml文件的相关部分如下所示：

inhibit_rules:- source_match:
    severity: 'critical'
  target_match:
    severity: 'warning'
  equal: ['low_connected_users']

配置抑制规则，是存在另一组匹配器匹配的情况下，静音其他被引发警报的规则。这两个警报，必须有一组相同的标签。

# Matchers that have to be fulfilled in the alerts to be muted.
target_match:
  [ <labelname>: <labelvalue>, ... ]
target_match_re:
  [ <labelname>: <regex>, ... ]

# Matchers for which one or more alerts have to exist for the
# inhibition to take effect.
source_match:
  [ <labelname>: <labelvalue>, ... ]
source_match_re:
  [ <labelname>: <regex>, ... ]

# Labels that must have an equal value in the source and target
# alert for the inhibition to take effect.
[ equal: '[' <labelname>, ... ']' ]

Silences

Silences是快速地使警报暂时静音的一种方法。 我们直接通过Alertmanager管理控制台中的专用页面来配置它们。在尝试解决严重的生产问题时，这对避免收到垃圾邮件很有用。
