Monitor cloud high availability

You can monitor and troubleshoot the Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift (RHOSO) high availability (HA) services to ensure that your control plane services remain operational and recover from failures.

The following shared control plane services are required to implement HA:

  • Galera
  • RabbitMQ
  • memcached

These services run as pods, and they are managed by Operators and monitored by RHOCP.

You can use the RHOCP client command line interface (oc) to interact with the platform and retrieve information about the status of the RHOSO control plane services. For example, you can use the oc to complete the following actions:

  • Monitor the startup and the state and availability of the RHOSO HA services.
  • Investigate the pods of the RHOSO HA services.
  • Investigate the Operators of the RHOSO HA services.
  • Describe the statefulset of the RHOSO HA services.
  • Investigate the RHOSO HA services.
  • Test the resilience of the RHOSO HA services.
