Moteur Glial & Aspirateur

The Aspirateur

The Aspirateur (Aspirateur.php) is the core of data collection. It connects to each MariaDB / MySQL server to collect:

  • Global variables (SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES)
  • Status (SHOW GLOBAL STATUS)
  • Processlist (SHOW PROCESSLIST)
  • Replication (SHOW SLAVE STATUS)
  • Galera (wsrep_* variables)
  • InnoDB (SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS)
  • Schemas (INFORMATION_SCHEMA)
  • Hardware via SSH (CPU, RAM, disk, load)
  • ProxySQL (admin interface)
  • VIP (DNS resolution)

Workers & Daemon

The worker system distributes the collection load:

  • Worker.php — Parallel worker pool, dynamic add/remove
  • Daemon.php — Start/stop all, statistics, refresh
  • Integrate.php — Integration of pivot files into time-series tables
# Démarrer les daemons
php /srv/www/pmacontrol/glial daemon start

# Voir le statut
php /srv/www/pmacontrol/glial daemon status

# Arrêter
php /srv/www/pmacontrol/glial daemon stop

Time-series files (ts_file)

Collected data is stored in time-series files (ts_file) with timestamps. Key tables:

  • ts_file — Collection file definitions
  • ts_max_date — Last collection date per server and file
  • ts_date_by_server — Collection date index
