8.7. Usage Tracking
Monitoring of resource usage per user is enabled by default in OpenShift Enterprise. This includes gears that are created, additional gear storage, and gear age.
User resource tracking consumes space in the MongoDB datastore. Therefore, Red Hat
recommends that you disable resource tracking if it is not required.
Procedure 8.3. To Disable Usage Tracking:
- Open
/etc/openshift/broker.confon the broker host. - Set the value of
ENABLE_USAGE_TRACKING_DATASTOREto"false".- Alternatively, set
ENABLE_USAGE_TRACKING_AUDIT_LOGtofalseto disable audit logging for usage tracking.
- Restart the broker service:
#
service openshift-broker restart
8.7.1. Setting Tracked and Untracked Storage
The
oo-admin-ctl-user command allows you to manage a user's available tracked and untracked gear storage. Both types of storage provide additional storage to a user's gears, but untracked storage is not included in usage reports. The total storage available to a user's gear is the sum of the tracked and untracked storage.
When a user adds storage to a gear, their untracked allowance is applied first. When the untracked storage is depleted, further storage is drawn from their tracked allowance.
After you set the gear storage maximums, a user can add their allotted additional storage to their applications using the Management Console or the client tools. See the OpenShift Enterprise User Guide at https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation for more information on storage management.
Note
Red Hat
recommends that you only set the maximum untracked storage amount if resource usage is not being tracked for users.
On the broker host, set the maximum amount of tracked storage per gear with the following command. Replace the example user name and amount of tracked gear storage to suit your requirements:
# oo-admin-ctl-user -l username --setmaxtrackedstorage 10Example 8.4. Setting the Maximum Amount of Tracked Storage
# oo-admin-ctl-user -l user --setmaxtrackedstorage 10
Setting max_tracked_addtl_storage_per_gear to 10... Done.
User user:
consumed gears: 2
max gears: 100
max tracked storage per gear: 10
max untracked storage per gear: 0

On the broker host, set the maximum amount of untracked storage per gear with the following command. Replace the example user name and amount of untracked gear storage to suit your requirements:

Setting max_tracked_addtl_storage_per_gear to 10... Done.
