Using metering with OpenShift Serverless

Metering is a deprecated feature. Deprecated functionality is still included in OpenShift Container Platform and continues to be supported; however, it will be removed in a future release of this product and is not recommended for new deployments.

For the most recent list of major functionality that has been deprecated or removed within OpenShift Container Platform, refer to the Deprecated and removed features section of the OpenShift Container Platform release notes.

As a cluster administrator, you can use metering to analyze what is happening in your OpenShift Serverless cluster.

For more information about metering on OpenShift Container Platform, see About metering.

Metering is not currently supported for IBM Z and IBM Power Systems.

Installing metering

For information about installing metering on OpenShift Container Platform, see Installing Metering.

Datasources for Knative Serving metering

The following ReportDataSources are examples of how Knative Serving can be used with OpenShift Container Platform metering.

Datasource for CPU usage in Knative Serving

This datasource provides the accumulated CPU seconds used per Knative service over the report time period.

YAML file
apiVersion: metering.openshift.io/v1
kind: ReportDataSource
metadata:
  name: knative-service-cpu-usage
spec:
  prometheusMetricsImporter:
    query: >
      sum
          by(namespace,
             label_serving_knative_dev_service,
             label_serving_knative_dev_revision)
          (
            label_replace(rate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total{container!="POD",container!="",pod!=""}[1m]), "pod", "$1", "pod", "(.*)")
            *
            on(pod, namespace)
            group_left(label_serving_knative_dev_service, label_serving_knative_dev_revision)
            kube_pod_labels{label_serving_knative_dev_service!=""}
          )

Datasource for memory usage in Knative Serving

This datasource provides the average memory consumption per Knative service over the report time period.

YAML file
apiVersion: metering.openshift.io/v1
kind: ReportDataSource
metadata:
  name: knative-service-memory-usage
spec:
  prometheusMetricsImporter:
    query: >
      sum
          by(namespace,
             label_serving_knative_dev_service,
             label_serving_knative_dev_revision)
          (
            label_replace(container_memory_usage_bytes{container!="POD", container!="",pod!=""}, "pod", "$1", "pod", "(.*)")
            *
            on(pod, namespace)
            group_left(label_serving_knative_dev_service, label_serving_knative_dev_revision)
            kube_pod_labels{label_serving_knative_dev_service!=""}
          )

Applying Datasources for Knative Serving metering

You can apply the ReportDataSources by using the following command:

$ oc apply -f <datasource_name>.yaml
Example
$ oc apply -f knative-service-memory-usage.yaml

    $ oc apply -f <query-name>.yaml
    Example command
    $ oc apply -f knative-service-memory-usage.yaml

Metering reports for Knative Serving

You can run metering reports against Knative Serving by creating Report resources. Before you run a report, you must modify the input parameter within the Report resource to specify the start and end dates of the reporting period.

YAML file
apiVersion: metering.openshift.io/v1
kind: Report
metadata:
  name: knative-service-cpu-usage
spec:
  reportingStart: '2019-06-01T00:00:00Z' (1)
  reportingEnd: '2019-06-30T23:59:59Z' (2)
  query: knative-service-cpu-usage (3)
runImmediately: true
1 Start date of the report, in ISO 8601 format.
2 End date of the report, in ISO 8601 format.
3 Either knative-service-cpu-usage for CPU usage report or knative-service-memory-usage for a memory usage report.

Running a metering report

  1. Run the report by entering the following command:

    $ oc apply -f <report-name>.yml

  2. You can then check the report by entering the following command:

    $ oc get report
    Example output
    NAME                        QUERY                       SCHEDULE   RUNNING    FAILED   LAST REPORT TIME       AGE
