Re: [prometheus-users] Getting status of services in CentOS 6.
Alas, only if migration from CentOS 6 to 7 was in my hand :P. But thanks for the suggestion, will give process exporter a try.

I don't think there is any alternative which is as integrated/powerful as systemd is on CentOS 7 and onwards. There are lots of service supervisors. Technically, CentOS 6 uses Upstart. However, almost no service seemed to make use of it, not even system ones. Instead, most of the services were plain old SysV init scripts. For those, there is no such supervision or integrated API for monitoring. Basically, I would go for process-based monitoring in this case (using process_exporter). On the other hand, support for CentOS 6 will end in only a few months so I guess any efforts should be invested regarding migrations towards CentOS 7 or 8...

[prometheus-users] Getting status of services in CentOS 6.
Hi. We have systemd collector in Prometheus that enables us to get the metrics - status of services from systemd. This works well in CentOS 7. But CentOS 6 does not have systemd, hence, the collector keeps throwing error. Is there any alternative for this for CentOS 6? Also, in my 6 VMs the URL http://localhost:9001 was giving 404 status and supervisord collector was enabled, and the load of the machines sky rocketed and node_exporter started consuming over 98%+ CPU. I haven't seen any abnormality in the server, so can this be cause for the high load, because I think these kind of bugs were fixed in late 2017.
