Monitoring ANP and BANP

Monitoring ANP and BANP

To monitor and troubleshoot AdminNetworkPolicy and BaselineAdminNetworkPolicy resources in OpenShift Container Platform, you can use OVN-Kubernetes metrics that report resource counts, rules, and northbound database objects.

Metrics for AdminNetworkPolicy

You can use OVN-Kubernetes metrics to monitor AdminNetworkPolicy and BaselineAdminNetworkPolicy resources. These metrics report policy and rule counts by direction and action, and northbound database objects that the policies create.

Name	Description	Explanation
`ovnkube_controller_admin_network_policies`	Not applicable	The total number of `AdminNetworkPolicy` resources in the cluster.
`ovnkube_controller_baseline_admin_network_policies`	Not applicable	The total number of `BaselineAdminNetworkPolicy` resources in the cluster. The value should be 0 or 1.
`ovnkube_controller_admin_network_policies_rules`	`direction`: specifies either `Ingress` or `Egress`. `action`: specifies either `Pass`, `Allow`, or `Deny`.	The total number of rules across all ANP policies in the cluster grouped by `direction` and `action`.
`ovnkube_controller_baseline_admin_network_policies_rules`	`direction`: specifies either `Ingress` or `Egress`. `action`: specifies either `Allow` or `Deny`.	The total number of rules across all BANP policies in the cluster grouped by `direction` and `action`.
`ovnkube_controller_admin_network_policies_db_objects`	`table_name`: specifies either `ACL` or `Address_Set`	The total number of OVN Northbound database (nbdb) objects that are created by all the ANP in the cluster grouped by the `table_name`.
`ovnkube_controller_baseline_admin_network_policies_db_objects`	`table_name`: specifies either `ACL` or `Address_Set`	The total number of OVN Northbound database (nbdb) objects that are created by all the BANP in the cluster grouped by the `table_name`.
