#31159: Monitor anti-censorship www services with prometheus -----------------------------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: phw | Owner: tpa Type: task | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Internal Services/Tor Sysadmin Team | Version: Severity: Normal | Keywords: Actual Points: | Parent ID: #30152 Points: 1 | Reviewer: Sponsor: | -----------------------------------------------------+-------------------- In the anti-censorship team we currently monitor [https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/AntiCensorshipTeam/InfrastructureMonitoring several services] with sysmon. We recently discovered that sysmon doesn't seem to follow HTTP 301 redirects. This means that if a web service dies but the 301 redirect still works (e.g., BridgeDB is dead but its apache reverse proxy still works), sysmon won't notice.
Now that prometheus is running, we should fill this monitoring gap by testing the following web sites: * https://bridges.torproject.org * https://snowflake.torproject.org * https://gettor.torproject.org Our test should ensure that these sites serve the content we expect, e.g., make sure that bridges.tp.o contains the string "BridgeDB" in its HTML. Testing the HTTP status code does not suffice: if BridgeDB is down, the reverse proxy may still respond. I wonder if prometheus could also help us with #12802 by sending an email to bridges@tp.o and making sure that it responds with at least one bridge? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/31159> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
