# Kube_Inventory Plugin
This plugin generates metrics derived from the state of the following Kubernetes resources:
- daemonsets
- deployments
- nodes
- persistentvolumes
- persistentvolumeclaims
- pods (containers)
- statefulsets
#### Series Cardinality Warning
This plugin may produce a high number of series which, when not controlled
for, will cause high load on your database. Use the following techniques to
avoid cardinality issues:
- Use [metric filtering][] options to exclude unneeded measurements and tags.
- Write to a database with an appropriate [retention policy][].
- Limit series cardinality in your database using the
[max-series-per-database][] and [max-values-per-tag][] settings.
- Consider using the [Time Series Index][tsi].
- Monitor your databases [series cardinality][].
- Consult the [InfluxDB documentation][influx-docs] for the most up-to-date techniques.
### Configuration:
```toml
[[inputs.kube_inventory]]
## URL for the Kubernetes API
url = "https://127.0.0.1"
## Namespace to use
# namespace = "default"
## Use bearer token for authorization. ('bearer_token' takes priority)
# bearer_token = "/path/to/bearer/token"
## OR
# bearer_token_string = "abc_123"
## Set response_timeout (default 5 seconds)
# response_timeout = "5s"
## Optional Resources to exclude from gathering
## Leave them with blank with try to gather everything available.
## Values can be - "daemonsets", deployments", "nodes", "persistentvolumes",
## "persistentvolumeclaims", "pods", "statefulsets"
# resource_exclude = [ "deployments", "nodes", "statefulsets" ]
## Optional Resources to include when gathering
## Overrides resource_exclude if both set.
# resource_include = [ "deployments", "nodes", "statefulsets" ]
## Optional TLS Config
# tls_ca = "/path/to/cafile"
# tls_cert = "/path/to/certfile"
# tls_key = "/path/to/keyfile"
## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
# insecure_skip_verify = false
```
#### Kubernetes Permissions
If using [RBAC authorization](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/rbac/), you will need to create a cluster role to list "persistentvolumes" and "nodes". You will then need to make an [aggregated ClusterRole](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/rbac/#aggregated-clusterroles) that will eventually be bound to a user or group.
```yaml
---
kind: ClusterRole
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: influx:cluster:viewer
labels:
rbac.authorization.k8s.io/aggregate-view-telegraf: "true"
rules:
- apiGroups: [""]
resources: ["persistentvolumes","nodes"]
verbs: ["get","list"]
---
kind: ClusterRole
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: influx:telegraf
aggregationRule:
clusterRoleSelectors:
- matchLabels:
rbac.authorization.k8s.io/aggregate-view-telegraf: "true"
rbac.authorization.k8s.io/aggregate-to-view: "true"
rules: [] # Rules are automatically filled in by the controller manager.
```
Bind the newly created aggregated ClusterRole with the following config file, updating the subjects as needed.
```yaml
---
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
metadata:
name: influx:telegraf:viewer
roleRef:
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
kind: ClusterRole
name: influx:telegraf
subjects:
- kind: ServiceAccount
name: telegraf
namespace: default
```

#### pv `phase_type`
The persistentvolume "phase" is saved in the `phase` tag with a correlated numeric field called `phase_type` corresponding with that tag value.
|Tag value |Corresponding field value|
-----------|-------------------------|
|bound | 0 |
|failed | 1 |
|pending | 2 |
|released | 3 |
|available | 4 |
|unknown | 5 |
#### pvc `phase_type`
The persistentvolumeclaim "phase" is saved in the `phase` tag with a correlated numeric field called `phase_type` corresponding with that tag value.
|Tag value |Corresponding field value|
-----------|-------------------------|
|bound | 0 |
|lost | 1 |
|pending | 2 |
|unknown | 3 |
