Introduction

Risu is a program that should help with system configuration validation on either live system or any sort of snapshot of the filesystem.

Via execution of 'plugins' it reports status on each one execution against the system that gives you an idea on health status, actual problems or problems that will reveal themselves if no preventive action is taken.

Please if you have any idea on any improvements please do not hesitate to open an issue.

Highlights

  • Plugins written in your language of choice.
  • Allows to dump output to json file to be processed by other tools.
    • Allow to visualize html from json output.
    • Check our sample at: Risu-www
  • Ansible playbook support.
  • Save / restore default settings

Check latest changes on changelog.md

Check for plugins listing on risuclient/plugins/

Installation

  • Just clone the git repository and execute it from there 'or'
  • use 'pipsi' or create a python virtual env to install package 'risu' 
    # pipsi install risu
Already using interpreter /usr/bin/python3
Using base prefix '/usr'
New python executable in /home/iranzo/.local/venvs/risu/bin/python3
Also creating executable in /home/iranzo/.local/venvs/risu/bin/python
Installing setuptools, pip, wheel...done.
Collecting risu
Installing collected packages: risu
Successfully installed risu-0.1.0.dev1072
  Linked script /home/iranzo/.local/bin/risu.py
  Linked script /home/iranzo/.local/bin/magui.py
Done.
    • Pipsi will take care of installing a virtual environment and link to binary folder so you can call risu.py or magui.py directly
    • Remember that pypi package might not contain all the latests plugins features as the github repo one.
  • Container:
    • Use our automatically built container in docker hub:
      • docker run --user=$(id -u) --rm -v $PATHTOSOSREPORT:/data:Z risu/risu:latest /data
    • or build your own using the included Dockerfile in the git checkout.
      • docker build . -f Dockerfile.centos7-atomic -t risu:latest # (from git checkout, then note image id)
      • docker run --user=$(id -u) --rm -v $PATHTOSOSREPORT:/data:Z risu:latest /data
    • Notes about using docker:
      • Docker passes as volume the path specified under /data so we do use that parameter with risu for running the tests.
      • The default user id within the container is 10001 and the commands or sosreport permissions doesn't allow that user to gather all the information, so the container is required to run as the current user.

Plugins and their descriptions

This is new feature of risu that will show you available scripts and their description.

./risu.py --list-plugins --description
{'backend': 'core', 'description': 'This plugin checks if Apache reaches its MaxRequestWorkers', 'plugin': '${INSTALLDIR}/risuclient/plugins/core/bugzilla/httpd/1406417.sh'}

Doing a live check example

This is an example of execution of Risu using all openstack and pacemaker tests collections.

Doing a fs snapshot check example

This is an example of execution of Risu using pacemaker and openstack filter against fs snapshot.

HTML Interface

  • Create by using --output $FOLDER and --web, open the generated risu.html.

  • Risu-web now supports the parsing of magui.json.

  • It's possible to tell the risu.html which json to parse by adding json= as a query string:

http://host/risu.html?json=magui.json

Ansible playbooks

Risu can also run Ansible playbooks via extension

The are some additional conventions that are detailed in ansible-playbooks.md that determine how to code them to be executed in live or snapshoot mode.

Commands have been extended to allow --list-plugins to list them and include /exclude filters to work with them.

All of them must end in .yml.
