Feng Ruohang e21b1c3a71 docs(healthcheck): say what ready does not wait for
The ready probe turns healthy before storage and IAM load, by design, so
that distributed nodes can reach each other during startup. Point
startup ordering such as Compose service_healthy at the cluster check,
and keep publishing not-ready addresses for StatefulSet peers.

Silo Monitoring Guide

Silo server exposes monitoring data over endpoints. Monitoring tools can pick the data from these endpoints. This document lists the monitoring endpoints and relevant documentation.

Healthcheck Probe

Silo server has two healthcheck related un-authenticated endpoints, a liveness probe to indicate if server is responding, cluster probe to check if server can be taken down for maintenance.

  • Liveness probe available at /minio/health/live
  • Cluster probe available at /minio/health/cluster

Read more on how to use these endpoints in Silo healthcheck guide.

Prometheus Probe

Silo allows reading metrics for the entire cluster from any single node. This allows for metrics collection for a Silo instance across all servers. Thus, metrics collection for instances behind a load balancer can be done without any knowledge of the individual node addresses. The cluster wide metrics can be read at <Address for Silo Service>/minio/v2/metrics/cluster.

The additional node specific metrics which include additional go metrics or process metrics are exposed at <Address for Silo Node>/minio/v2/metrics/node.

The additional bucket specific metrics which include additional go metrics or process metrics are exposed at <Address for Silo Node>/minio/v2/metrics/bucket.

The additional resource specific metrics which include additional go metrics or process metrics are exposed at <Address for Silo Node>/minio/v2/metrics/resource.

To use this endpoint, setup Prometheus to scrape data from this endpoint. Read more on how to configure and use Prometheus to monitor Silo server in How to monitor Silo server with Prometheus.
