openldap_exporter's Introduction

Prometheus OpenLDAP Exporter

Export metrics from your OpenLDAP servers to your Prometheus monitoring system.

Prerequisites

You'll need a working OpenLDAP server, and a working Prometheus server. Setup and installation of those is left as an exercise to the reader.

The exporter service is developed and tested using Python 2. The ldaptor requires features in Twisted that have not been ported to Python 3 as of Twisted 16.4.0.

How it Works

The OpenLDAP exporter opens up a new LDAP connection to the OpenLDAP server each time Prometheus scrapes the exporter. LDAP objects with the objectClass of monitorCounterObject or monitoredObject under the cn=Monitor base are searched for. Any objects that are found that have data that can be converted to a floating point number are exported as metrics with the object's distinguished name as a label.

See the OpenLDAP Manual for more information on how OpenLDAP exposes performance metrics.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/jcollie/openldap_exporter.git
cd openldap_exporter
virtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python2 /opt/openldap_exporter
/opt/openldap_exporter/bin/pip install --requirement requirements.txt
cp openldap_exporter.py /opt/openldap_exporter
cp openldap_exporter.yml /opt/openldap_exporter
vi /opt/openldap_exporter/openldap_exporter.yml
# edit configuration file
cp openldap_exporter.service /etc/systemd/system
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable openldap_exporter
systemctl start openldap_exporter

Docker Build

docker build . -t openldap_exporter

Configuration

OpenLDAP

The OpenLDAP configuration needs to be modified to allow querying the monitoring database over a remote connection. The following command should be run on the OpenLDAP server:

# ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:// <<EOF
dn: olcDatabase={1}monitor,cn=config
changetype: modify
replace: olcAccess
olcAccess: to * by dn.base="gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth" read by dn.base="cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" read by * none
-
EOF

Replace cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com with the distinguished name of the user that you want to read the metrics with.

Consult the OpenLDAP manual for more information on configuring OpenLDAP access lists.

Exporter

Local Installation

The exporter is configured using command line options:

usage: openldap_exporter [-h] --config CONFIG

Prometheus OpenLDAP exporter

optional arguments:
  -h, --help       show this help message and exit
  --config CONFIG  configuration file

The configuration file is a YAML formatted file that looks like this:

---
server: tcp:port=9142
client: tcp:host=127.0.0.1:port=389
binddn: cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com
bindpw: changeme

Twisted server endpoint specifiers are described here. Twisted client endpoint specifiers are described here.

Docker Installation

docker run -d -v <location of the config>/openldap_exporter.yml:/config/openldap_exporter.yml -p 9142:9142 --net host openldap_exporter

Prometheus

Add a job to your Promethus configuration that looks like the following:

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'openldap'
    scrape_interval: 30s
    scrape_timeout: 10s
    target_groups:
      - targets:
        - 'localhost:9142'
