Summary

  • Red Hat OpenShift Observability collects logs, traces, events, and system metrics to provide real-time monitoring.

  • Red Hat OpenShift Logging aggregates all the logs from the pods and nodes of an OpenShift cluster to a centralized location.

  • The OpenShift monitoring stack is based on the Prometheus open source project.

  • The default monitoring stack is included with OpenShift Container Platform.

  • The components of the default monitoring stack are installed in the openshift-monitoring project and provide monitoring features for core platform components.

  • In OpenShift Container Platform, you can use the Alerts UI to manage alerts, silences, and alerting rules.

    • Alerting rules contain a set of conditions that outline a particular state within a cluster.

    • An alert is fired when the conditions that are defined in an alerting rule are true.

    • You can apply a silence to an alert to prevent sending notifications when the conditions for an alert are true.
