Shinken performance statistics

Introduction

Shinken provides some statistics in the log files on the health of the Shinken services. These are not currently available in the check_shinken check script. Support is planned in a future release. This will permit graphical review that Shinken :

  • Operates efficiently
  • Locate problem areas in the monitoring process
  • Observe the performance impacts of changes in your Shinken configuration

Shinken internal metrics are collected in the poller log and scheduler logs when debug log level is enabled.
