Google Cloud Storage Monitoring

Host Template: Cloud - Google Cloud Storage Monitoring

Monitor your GCP Cloud Storage Buckets. Service Checks include API requests, Network Bytes and Bucket statistics (Object count, Total Bytes and Byte Seconds).

This Host Template includes the following Service Checks:

Service Check Name	Description	Default Thresholds (Warning, Critical)	UOM
GCP - Storage - Network Bytes	Bytes received and sent by the bucket.	N/A	B
GCP - Storage - API Requests	Number of API requests to the bucket.	N/A	N/A
GCP - Storage - Bucket Object Count	Total number of objects in the bucket. This value is measured once per day by Stackdriver, so changes will take 24hrs to appear.	N/A	N/A
GCP - Storage - Bucket Bytes	Total bytes in the bucket. This value is measured once per day by Stackdriver, so changes will take 24hrs to appear.	N/A	B
GCP - Storage - Bucket Byte Seconds	Total daily storage used by the bucket in byte-seconds. This value is measured once per day by Stackdriver, so changes will take 24hrs to appear.	N/A	Bs

Google Cloud Storage Monitoring Usage Instructions

NOTE: The service account used must have storage.buckets.get access to your bucket.

Step 1: Add this Host Template

Add the Cloud - GCP - Storage Host Template to your Opsview Monitor host. If the resource you're monitoring has no hostname or public IP, then open the Advanced settings pane and change Host Check Command to Always assumed to be UP.

For more information, refer to Opsview Knowledge Center - Adding Host Templates to Hosts.

Step 2: Add and configure variables required for this Host Template

The Service Checks in this Host Template use the following variables, and they will be added to your Opsview Monitor instance when you import the Opspack:

GCP_PROJECT_ID

Parameter	Position in Variable	Name	Description
--project-id	Arg1	Monitored Project ID	ID of the project to monitor

GCP_BUCKET_NAME

Parameter	Position in Variable	Name	Description
--bucket-name	Arg1	Bucket Name	Name of the bucket

GCP_CREDENTIALS_FILE

This argument is optional - if you are only using one set of credentials, we recommend not setting it, and instead placing your credentials file in the default path /opt/opsview/monitoringscripts/etc/plugins/cloud-gcp/credentials.json. Ensure this file is readable by the opsview user.

Parameter	Position in Variable	Name	Description
--credentials-file	Arg1	Credentials File	Path of the JSON file with GCP Service Account Credentials

For more information, refer to Opsview Knowledge Center - Adding Variables to Hosts.

For mode-specific help, run the plugin with the -h -m <mode> flags. This will list the required and optional Variable Arguments for that mode. The appropriate mode for each Service Check is listed here:

Service Check Name	Mode
GCP - Storage - Network Bytes	`GCP.Storage.Net.Bytes`
GCP - Storage - API Requests	`GCP.Storage.API.Requests`
GCP - Storage - Bucket Object Count	`GCP.Storage.Object.Count`
GCP - Storage - Bucket Bytes	`GCP.Storage.Bytes`
GCP - Storage - Bucket Byte Seconds	`GCP.Storage.Byte.Seconds`
