Elasticsearch 日志监控方案

现在大部分公司都会选择将应用、中间件、系统等日志存储在 Elasticsearch 中,如何发现日志中的异常数据并且及时告警通知就显得十分重要。本文将会介绍两种主流的日志监控方案,分别是 Yelp 公司开源的 ElastAlert 和 Elastic 官方的商业版功能 Watcher。

如下图所示,日志数据源是一台 Nginx 服务器,在该服务器上安装 Filebeat 收集 Nginx 日志并输出到 Elasticsearch,之后会分别演示用 ElastAlert 和 Watcher 两种方案监控日志并进行告警。



部署 Nginx



安装依赖

yum install -y gcc gcc-c++ autoconf pcre pcre-devel make automake wget httpd-tools vim tree zlib-devel



下载安装包

wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.14.0.tar.gz
tar -xzvf nginx-1.14.0.tar.gz



编译安装

cd nginx-1.14.0
./configure



配置 Nginx

编辑配置文件 /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf,在 Nginx 上配置一个静态网页服务。

worker_processes  1;

events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}


http {
    server {
        listen  80;
        location / {
            root html;
        }
    }
}

启动 Nginx:

sbin/nginx

访问 Nginx:



部署 Filebeat

下载并安装 Filebeat。

curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats/filebeat/filebeat-7.14.0-x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -vi filebeat-7.14.0-x86_64.rpm

编辑 /etc/filebeat/filebeat.yml 配置文件,读取 Nginx 日志文件输出到 Elasticsearch 的 nginx 索引中,后缀是当前日期。

filebeat.inputs:
- type: log
  enabled: true
  paths:
    - /usr/local/nginx/logs/*.log
output.elasticsearch:
  hosts: ["192.168.1.8:9200"]
  index: "nginx-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}"
  #username: "elastic"
  #password: "changeme"
setup.ilm.enabled: false
setup.template.name: "nginx"
setup.template.pattern: "nginx-*"

启动 Filebeat:

systemctl start filebeat



ElastAlert

ElastAlert 是 Yelp 公司开源的一套用 Python 写的 Elasticsearch 告警框架,可以从 Elasticsearch 当中查询出匹配规则的数据进行告警。

ElastAlert 有以下特点:

  • 支持多种匹配规则(频率、阈值、数据变化、黑白名单、变化率等)。
  • 支持多种告警类型(邮件、HTTP POST、自定义脚本等)。
  • 支持用户自定义规则和告警类型。
  • 匹配项汇总报警,重复告警抑制,告警失败重试和过期。
  • 可用性强,状态信息保存到 Elasticsearch 的索引中。
  • 支持调试和审计。



部署 Elastalert



安装 Python

wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.9/Python-3.6.9.tgz
tar -zxvf Python-3.6.9.tgz
cd Python-3.6.9
./configure
make && make install

检查 Python 版本:

python3 -V



安装依赖

yum install gcc libffi-devel python3-devel openssl-devel -y
pip3 install -U pip
pip3 install "setuptools>=11.3"



安装 Elastalert

python3 install elastalert



配置 Elastalert

克隆代码到本地:

git clone https://github.com/Yelp/elastalert.git
cd elastalert

我们可以在 ElastAlert 源码文件的根目录下找到一个叫做 config.yaml.example 的文件,修改文件名为 config.yaml:

mv config.yaml.example  config.yaml

创建存放规则的目录。

mkdir rules
cd rules

编辑 config.yaml 文件,修改主配置:

#规则存放的目录
rules_folder: rules

#运行的频率
run_every:
  minutes: 1

#ElastAlert 将缓存最近一段时间的结果,以防某些日志源不是实时的
buffer_time:
  minutes: 45

#Elasticsearch 地址
es_host: 192.168.1.8

#Elasticsearch 端口
es_port: 9200

#Elasticsearch 用户名密码(可选)
#es_username: someusername
#es_password: somepassword

#ElastAlert 元数据存储索引
writeback_index: elastalert_status

#如果警报因某种原因失败,ElastAlert将重试发送警报,直到该时间段结束
alert_time_limit:
  days: 2

创建 rules/nginx.yaml 文件,编辑 rule:

规则内容为:在 1 分钟内如果查询 nginx-* 索引的 message 字段匹配 到 error 5 次就触发告警,往指定的 URL 发送一个 HTTP POST 请求。

# Alert when the rate of events exceeds a threshold

# (Required)
# Elasticsearch host
es_host: 192.168.1.8

# (Required)
# Elasticsearch port
es_port: 9200

# (OptionaL) Connect with SSL to elasticsearch
#use_ssl: True

# (Optional) basic-auth username and password for elasticsearch
#es_username: someusername
#es_password: somepassword

# (Required)
# Rule name, must be unique
name: nginx rule

# (Required)
# Type of alert.
# the frequency rule type alerts when num_events events occur with timeframe time
type: frequency

# (Required)
# Index to search, wildcard supported
index: nginx-*

# (Required, frequency specific)
# Alert when this many documents matching the query occur within a timeframe
num_events: 5

# (Required, frequency specific)
# num_events must occur within this amount of time to trigger an alert
timeframe:
  minutes: 1

# (Required)
# A list of elasticsearch filters used for find events
# These filters are joined with AND and nested in a filtered query
# For more info: http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl.html
filter:
- term:
    message: "error"

# (Required)
# The alert is use when a match is found
alert:
- "post"

http_post_url: "https://webhook.site/2f64f4b3-8b43-488c-b2df-695136079e36"

https://webhook.site 网站提供了测试的 Webhook 接口,每个人的 URL 都是独立的,拷贝这个 URL 复制到 http_post_url 中。

ElastAlert 会把执行记录存放到一个索引中,可以方便我们审核和调试。使用以下命令创建这个索引的,默认情况下,索引名叫 elastalert_status。

root@ydt-net-es-node1:/software #elastalert-create-index
Enter Elasticsearch host: 192.168.1.8
Enter Elasticsearch port: 9200
Use SSL? t/f: f
#如果有认证输入用户名密码

Done!

发送 2 个请求,1 个是正确请求,1 个是错误请求。

在 Kibana 上可以看到 Nginx 的日志,错误请求会在 access.log 和 error.log 各写一次,因此这里看到 3 条记录。

运行 elastalert-test-rule 命令检验配置文件是否正确并且可以看到规则匹配的次数,elastalert-test-rule 命令并不会真正触发告警。

> elastalert-test-rule rules/nginx.yaml

            To send them but remain verbose, use --verbose instead.

#匹配一次

Would have written the following documents to writeback index (default is elastalert_status):

elastalert_status - {'rule_name': 'nginx rule', 'endtime': datetime.datetime(2021, 8, 16, 7, 29, 30, 422431, tzinfo=tzutc()), 'starttime': datetime.datetime(2021, 8, 16, 7, 28, 29, 822431, tzinfo=tzutc()), 'matches': 0, 'hits': 1, '@timestamp': datetime.datetime(2021, 8, 16, 7, 29, 30, 527080, tzinfo=tzutc()), 'time_taken': 0.02203655242919922}

1分钟内连续发送错误请求 5 次达到触发告警的阈值:

for i in {1..3};do curl http://192.168.1.134/xxxxxx -I;done

此时可以看到发送的告警格式。

Would have written the following documents to writeback index (default is elastalert_status):

silence - {'exponent': 0, 'rule_name': 'nginx rule', '@timestamp': datetime.datetime(2021, 8, 16, 7, 34, 42, 866184, tzinfo=tzutc()), 'until': datetime.datetime(2021, 8, 16, 7, 35, 42, 866174, tzinfo=tzutc())}

使用以下命令运行 elastalert,可以看到触发了告警:

> elastalert --verbose --rule rules/nginx.yaml
1 rules loaded

访问 https://webhook.site 网站可以看到 ElastAlert 发送的 HTTP POST 请求。

查询 elastalert_status 索引可以看到 ElastAlert 的执行记录。

Watcher

Watcher 是 Elastic 官方提供的一个对日志数据监控和报警的功能,Watcher 属于收费功能,我们可以在 License Management 中开启 30 天的试用。

Watcher 由以下 5 个部分组成:


  • trigger

    :定义 watcher 触发的时间或者周期。

  • input

    :定义数据的来源,可以是一个索引或者 HTTP 请求的结果等等。如果没有设置输入将为空。

  • condition

    :定义执行 action 触发的条件。如果没有设置默认总是触发 action。

  • transform(可选)

    :修改 watcher 的 payload。

  • actions

    :定义执行的动作,例如 email,webhook,index,logging,slack 等等。

创建 1 个 Watcher:

  • trigger:每分钟运行一次。
  • input:通配符匹配 nginx-* 的索引,查询 message 字段中的 error 关键字,每次针对在过去5分钟内发生的事件来进行查询。
  • condition:如果在查询结果中,匹配到 1 次,就触发 action。
  • action:向指定 URL 发送一个 HTTP POST 请求。
PUT _watcher/watch/nginx-watcher
{
  "trigger": {
     "schedule" : {
      "interval" : "1m"
    }
  },
  "input": {
    "search": {
      "request": {
        "indices": [
          "nginx-*"
        ],
        "body": {
          "query": {
            "bool": {
              "must": {
                "match": {
                  "message": "error"
                }
              },
              "filter": {
                "range": {
                  "@timestamp": {
                    "from": "{{ctx.trigger.scheduled_time}}||-5m",
                    "to": "{{ctx.trigger.triggered_time}}"
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "condition": {
    "compare": {
      "ctx.payload.hits.total": {
        "gt": 0
      }
    }
  },
  "actions": {
    "my_webhook": {
      "throttle_period": "2m",
      "webhook": {
        "method": "POST",
        "url": "https://webhook.site/2f64f4b3-8b43-488c-b2df-695136079e36",
        "body": "Number of Nginx Error: {{ctx.payload.hits.total}}"
      }
    }
  }
}

查看刚刚创建的 watcher:

1分钟内连续发送 5 次错误请求。

for i in {1..3};do curl http://192.168.1.134/xxxxxx -I;done

查看 watcher 状态,可以看到触发了 action。

访问 https://webhook.site 可以看到最新的 Webhook 事件已经被触发了,而且它的 Raw Content 和我们之前定义的 body 格式是一致的。

如果我们设置的 watcher 间隔时间比较久,Elasticsearch 为了方便我们测试,提供了_execute 接口,通过执行下面命令可以立即运行一下我们的 watcher。

PUT _watcher/watch/nginx-watcher/_execute
