Memcached by Zabbix agent 2

Overview

This template is designed for the effortless deployment of Memcached monitoring by Zabbix via Zabbix agent 2 and doesn't require any external scripts.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

  • Memcached 1.4, 1.5, 1.6

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

Setup and configure zabbix-agent2 compiled with the Memcached monitoring plugin.

Test availability: zabbix_get -s memcached-host -k memcached.ping

Macros used

Name Description Default
{$MEMCACHED.CONN.URI}

Connection string in the URI format (password is not used). This param overwrites a value configured in the "Plugins.Memcached.Uri" option of the configuration file (if it's set), otherwise, the plugin's default value is used: "tcp://localhost:11211"

 tcp://localhost:11211
{$MEMCACHED.CONN.THROTTLED.MAX.WARN}

Maximum number of throttled connections per second

 1
{$MEMCACHED.CONN.QUEUED.MAX.WARN}

Maximum number of queued connections per second

 1
{$MEMCACHED.CONN.PRC.MAX.WARN}

Maximum percentage of connected clients

 80
{$MEMCACHED.MEM.PUSED.MAX.WARN}

Maximum percentage of memory used

 90

Memcached: Ping Zabbix agent memcached.ping["{$MEMCACHED.CONN.URI}"]

Preprocessing

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 10m
Memcached: Max connections

Max number of concurrent connections

 Dependent item memcached.connections.max

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.max_connections

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 30m
Memcached: Maximum number of bytes

Maximum number of bytes allowed in cache. You can adjust this setting via a config file or the command line while starting your Memcached server.

 Dependent item memcached.config.limit_maxbytes

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.limit_maxbytes

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 30m
Memcached: CPU sys

System CPU consumed by the Memcached server

 Dependent item memcached.cpu.sys

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.rusage_system
Memcached: CPU user

User CPU consumed by the Memcached server

 Dependent item memcached.cpu.user

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.rusage_user
Memcached: Queued connections per second

Number of times that memcached has hit its connections limit and disabled its listener

 Dependent item memcached.connections.queued.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.listen_disabled_num

  • Change per second
Memcached: New connections per second

Number of connections opened per second

 Dependent item memcached.connections.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.total_connections

  • Change per second
Memcached: Throttled connections

Number of times a client connection was throttled. When sending GETs in batch mode and the connection contains too many requests (limited by -R parameter) the connection might be throttled to prevent starvation.

 Dependent item memcached.connections.throttled.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.conn_yields

  • Change per second
Memcached: Connection structures

Number of connection structures allocated by the server

 Dependent item memcached.connections.structures

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.connection_structures
Memcached: Open connections

The number of clients presently connected

 Dependent item memcached.connections.current

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.curr_connections
Memcached: Commands: FLUSH per second

The flush_all command invalidates all items in the database. This operation incurs a performance penalty and shouldn't take place in production, so check your debug scripts.

 Dependent item memcached.commands.flush.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.cmd_flush

  • Change per second
Memcached: Commands: GET per second

Number of GET requests received by server per second.

 Dependent item memcached.commands.get.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.cmd_get

  • Change per second
Memcached: Commands: SET per second

Number of SET requests received by server per second.

 Dependent item memcached.commands.set.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.cmd_set

  • Change per second
Memcached: Process id

PID of the server process

 Dependent item memcached.process_id

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.pid

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 1d
Memcached: Memcached version

Version of the Memcached server

 Dependent item memcached.version

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.version

  • Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 1d
Memcached: Uptime

Number of seconds since Memcached server start

 Dependent item memcached.uptime

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.uptime
Memcached: Bytes used

Current number of bytes used to store items.

 Dependent item memcached.stats.bytes

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.bytes
Memcached: Written bytes per second

The network's read rate per second in B/sec

 Dependent item memcached.stats.bytes_written.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.bytes_written

  • Change per second
Memcached: Read bytes per second

The network's read rate per second in B/sec

 Dependent item memcached.stats.bytes_read.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.bytes_read

  • Change per second
Memcached: Hits per second

Number of successful GET requests (items requested and found) per second.

 Dependent item memcached.stats.hits.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.get_hits

  • Change per second
Memcached: Misses per second

Number of missed GET requests (items requested but not found) per second.

 Dependent item memcached.stats.misses.rate

Preprocessing

  • JSON Path: $.get_misses

  • Change per second
Memcached: Evictions per second

"An eviction is when an item that still has time to live is removed from the cache because a brand new item needs to be allocated.

The item is selected with a pseudo-LRU mechanism.

A high number of evictions coupled with a low hit rate means your application is setting a large number of keys that are never used again."

  • Change per second
Memcached: New items per second
