topolvm operator is failed to push monitoring metrics into prometheus

[GowthamShanmugam]

topolvm operator is not pushing any monitoring metrics out of operator and nodes pod, There is no way to create an alert and alerting rules for topolvm in Kubernetes / Openshift.

[GowthamShanmugam]

What is missing:

• services for the service monitor to fetch the metrics
• Roles and role binding

[little-guy-lxr]

@GowthamShanmugam service has added. see #63

[GowthamShanmugam]

ack will test with latest master once again.

@little-guy-lxr can you pls add commit #63 to origin-topolvm branch or can I raise the cherry-pick PR?

[little-guy-lxr]

topolvm

OK, I will cherry pick the commit to origin-topolvm

[GowthamShanmugam]

with the latest branch monitoring is not working, service monitoring is not created, do I need to create it manually? I can see everything is working fine when i am using alaudapublic/topolvm-operator:2.2.0. But with the main branch custom build it is not working.

[GowthamShanmugam]

Is there any reason we stopped calling EnableServiceMonitor function and CreateOrUpdatePrometheusRule?

This Pr is fixing service monitoring and alerting rule creation but still metrics are not getting populated: #87

Metrics are coming only if i create namespace level role and role-binding

@GowthamShanmugam How do you deploy topolvm operator. did you use the Yaml in https://github.com/alauda/topolvm-operator/tree/main/deploy/example ?

[GowthamShanmugam]

yes, i used YAMLS

[little-guy-lxr]

@GowthamShanmugam please paste the log of topolvm operator. is your platform kubernetes/openshit ?

[GowthamShanmugam]

openshift, I saw metrics are getting populated while using alaudapublic/topolvm-operator:2.2.0 on openshift. But with the latest main branch not working. i will add logs.

[GowthamShanmugam]

i checked with the latest master this issue is still there, i dont find logs which is related to metrics
