Solr monitoring with Netdata
Solr
is an open-source enterprise-search platform, written in Java, from the Apache
Lucene project.
This module monitors Solr
request handler statistics.
Requirement
Charts
It produces the following charts per core:
- Search Requests in
requests/s
- Search Errors in
errors/s
- Search Errors By Type in
errors/s
- Search Requests Processing Time in
milliseconds
- Search Requests Timings in
milliseconds
- Search Requests Processing Time Percentile in
milliseconds
- Update Requests in
requests/s
- Update Errors in
errors/s
- Update Errors By Type in
errors/s
- Update Requests Processing Time in
milliseconds
- Update Requests Timings in
milliseconds
- Update Requests Processing Time Percentile in
milliseconds
Configuration
Edit the go.d/solr.conf
configuration file using edit-config
from the
Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata
.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory
sudo ./edit-config go.d/solr.conf
Here is an example for 2 servers:
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://localhost:8983
- name: remote
url: http://203.0.113.10:8983
For all available options please see
module configuration file.
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot issues with the solr
collector, run the go.d.plugin
with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
-
Navigate to the plugins.d
directory, usually at /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
. If that's not the case on
your system, open netdata.conf
and look for the plugins
setting under [directories]
.
cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
-
Switch to the netdata
user.
sudo -u netdata -s
-
Run the go.d.plugin
to debug the collector:
./go.d.plugin -d -m solr
