Monitoring temps réel

Collected metrics

The Aspirateur continuously collects over 120 metrics on each MariaDB / MySQL server:

  • Performance — Queries/sec, slow queries, threads running/connected, table locks
  • InnoDB — Buffer pool hit ratio, dirty pages, redo log, row locks, deadlocks
  • Replication — Seconds behind master, IO/SQL thread status, GTID
  • Connections — Active connections, max_connections, aborted connects/clients
  • Cache — Query cache hit ratio, key buffer usage, table open cache
  • Disk — Space used by datadir, binlogs, tmp, logs
  • Hardware — CPU, RAM, swap, load average (via SSH)

Dashboard

The Dashboard (Dashboard.php) aggregates key metrics:

  • Hit Ratio — InnoDB buffer pool and query cache efficiency
  • Thread Cache — Thread reuse ratio
  • Open Files — Open files vs limit
  • Lock Ratio — Table lock vs row-level lock ratio

Data is exposed as JSON for integration with external dashboards (Grafana, etc.).

Server comparison

The Monitoring module allows comparing metrics between two or more servers. Useful for:

  • Validating that a replica has the same performance as the master
  • Comparing configurations between environments
  • Detecting divergences after a failover

Post-mortem

The PostMortem module (PostMortem.php) allows analyzing system metrics after an incident. It formats performance data for detailed chronological analysis.
