Openshift container monitoring in scom

Dashboard Server
1

Hi,

Is there anyone who knows if we can monitor and how we can monitor openshift containers in scom? I think there is a solution in azure, can we use this to monitor our on premise containers?

What is the best solution?

Thanks,

Kind regards,

Luc

Hi Luc,

I saw OpenShift provides a rich REST API. You could firstly find the right query to show the information in SquaredUp so that you have visibility and secondly you can create a PowerShell Monitor / Rule which uses “Invoke-RestMethod” to query OpenShift and throw alerts if required.

Hope that helps

Luc, just found that there is a UserVoice entry for Container Monitoring with SCOM.

Please visit https://systemcenterom.uservoice.com/forums/293064-general-operations-manager-feedback/suggestions/38305993-container-monitoring-in-scom and share your thoughts.
