commvault-exporter

Prometheus exporter for Commvault Backup and Recovery / CommCell REST APIs.

The exporter logs in to Commvault, refreshes data in the background, and serves Prometheus metrics from an in-process cache. It exposes /metrics, /health, /readyz, and /debug/cache.

Quick Start

export COMMVAULT_USERNAME='<readonly-user>'
export COMMVAULT_PASSWORD='<password>'
go run . -url https://commvault.example.com

The exporter listens on :9720 by default.

Credentials are read from COMMVAULT_USERNAME and COMMVAULT_PASSWORD. Set COMMVAULT_PASSWORD to the real password; the exporter encodes it for the Commvault Login API request. Set COMMVAULT_AUTH_TOKEN to use a pre-created token instead of logging in.

Disable collectors by these names: vm, dashboard, jobs, alerts, storage.

Report-backed dashboard/storage endpoints are configurable because Commvault publishes some of them as report dataset paths. Override them with: COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_COMMCELL_DETAILS, COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_SLA, COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_JOBS_24H, COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_HEALTH_OVERVIEW, COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_ENVIRONMENT, COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_CURRENT_CAPACITY, and COMMVAULT_ENDPOINT_STORAGE_SPACE_USAGE.
