MAS-DB Exporter

Maximo-CPI offers several Prometheus exporters, including the MAS-DB Exporter. This exporter is used to collect DB metrics e.g. cpu, memory, cache hit ratio, direct reads writes. The exporter supports DB2, Oracle and MS SQL Server.

Warning: This exporter leverages logging and custom metric collection features, and is only supported when maximo-cpi is deployed on the OpenShift cluster.

Below are the scripts/command to enable and disable the exporter:

  • mas-manage-db-exporter-enable.sh <manage namespace name> <db type> to enable the exporter. Note: Valid db type values are db2, ora, sqs
  • mas-manage-db-exporter-disable.sh <manage namespace name> to disable the exporter.

Notes:

  • The exporter supports multi-instances on the same cluster

  • The enable script:

    • create scripts mas-<instance>-manage-db-exporter under /opt/app-root/src/server/metricscript
    • create and apply the podmonitor for mas-<instance>-manage-db-exporter in the cluster

  • The disable script removes all the above scripts.
