|
For exporting data, VictoriaMetrics Anomaly Detection (`vmanomaly`) primarily employs the [VmWriter](#vm-writer), which writes produced anomaly scores **(preserving initial labelset and optionally applying additional ones)** back to VictoriaMetrics. This writer is tailored for smooth data export within the VictoriaMetrics ecosystem.
|
|
|
|
Future updates will introduce additional export methods, offering users more flexibility in data handling and integration.

### Multitenancy support
|
|
|
|
> This feature applies to the VictoriaMetrics Cluster version only. Tenants are identified by either `accountID` or `accountID:projectID`. Starting with [v1.16.2](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/changelog/#v1162), the `multitenant` [endpoint](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/cluster-victoriametrics/?highlight=writes#multitenancy-via-labels) is supported for writing data across multiple [tenants](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/cluster-victoriametrics/#multitenancy). For more details, refer to the VictoriaMetrics Cluster [multitenancy documentation](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/cluster-victoriametrics/#multitenancy).
|
|
|
|
Please note the different behaviors depending on the `tenant_id` value:
|
|
|
|
1. **When `writer.tenant_id != 'multitenant'` (e.g., `"0:0"`) and `reader.tenant_id != 'multitenant'` (can be different but valid, like `"0:1")**:
|
|
- The `vm_account_id` label is **not created** in the reader, **not persisted** to the writer, and is **not expected** in the output.
|
|
- **Result**: Data is written successfully with no logs or errors.
|
|
|
|
2. **When `writer.tenant_id = 'multitenant'` and `vm_project_id` is present in the label set**:
|
|
- This typically happens when `reader.tenant_id` is also set to `multitenant`, meaning the `vm_account_id` label is stored in the results returned from the queries.
|
|
- **Result**: Everything functions as expected. Data is written successfully with no logs or errors.
|
|
|
|
3. **When `writer.tenant_id = 'multitenant'` but `vm_account_id` is missing** (e.g., due to aggregation in the reader or missing `keep_metric_names` in the query):
|
|
- **Result**: The data is still written to `"0:0"`, but a warning is raised:
|
|
```
|
|
The label `vm_account_id` was not found in the label set of {query_result.key},
|
|
but tenant_id='multitenant' is set in writer. The data will be written to the default tenant 0:0.
|
|
Ensure that the query retains the necessary multi-tenant labels,
|
|
or adjust the aggregation settings to preserve `vm_account_id` key in the label set.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. **When `writer.tenant_id != 'multitenant'` (e.g., `"0:0"`) and `vm_account_id` exists in the label set**:
|
|
- **Result**: Writing is allowed, but a warning is raised:
|
|
```
|
|
The label set for the metric {query_result.key} contains multi-tenancy labels,
|
|
but the write endpoint is configured for single-tenant mode (tenant_id != 'multitenant').
|
|
Either adjust the query in the reader to avoid multi-tenancy labels
|
|
or ensure that reserved key `vm_account_id` is not explicitly set for single-tenant environments.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### mTLS protection
|
|
|
|
Starting from [v1.16.3](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/changelog/#v1163), `vmanomaly` components such as [VmWriter](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/writer/#vm-writer) support [mTLS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_authentication) to ensure secure communication with [VictoriaMetrics Enterprise, configured with mTLS](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#mtls-protection).
|
|
|
|
For detailed guidance on configuring mTLS parameters such as `verify_tls`, `tls_cert_file`, and `tls_key_file`, please refer to the [mTLS protection section](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/reader/#mtls-protection) in the [Reader](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/reader/#vm-reader) documentation. The configuration principles apply consistently across all these `vmanomaly` components.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Healthcheck metrics
|
|
|
|
`VmWriter` exposes [several healthchecks metrics](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/monitoring/#writer-behaviour-metrics).
|
|
|
|
### Metrics formatting
|
|
|
|
There should be 2 mandatory parameters set in `metric_format` - `__name__` and `for`.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
__name__: PREFIX1_$VAR
|
|
for: PREFIX2_$QUERY_KEY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* for `__name__` parameter it will name metrics returned by models as `PREFIX1_anomaly_score`, `PREFIX1_yhat_lower`, etc. Vmanomaly output metrics names described [here](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/models/#vmanomaly-output)
|
|
* for `for` parameter will add labels `PREFIX2_query_name_1`, `PREFIX2_query_name_2`, etc. Query names are set as aliases in config `reader` section in [`queries`](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/reader/#config-parameters) parameter.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to specify other custom label names needed.
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
custom_label_1: label_name_1
|
|
custom_label_2: label_name_2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Apart from specified labels, output metrics will return **labels inherited from input metrics returned by [queries](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/anomaly-detection/components/reader/#config-parameters)**.
|
|
For example if input data contains labels such as `cpu=1, device=eth0, instance=node-exporter:9100` all these labels will be present in vmanomaly output metrics.
|
|
|
|
So if metric_format section was set up like this:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
metric_format:
|
|
__name__: "PREFIX1_$VAR"
|
|
for: "PREFIX2_$QUERY_KEY"
|
|
custom_label_1: label_name_1
|
|
custom_label_2: label_name_2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It will return metrics that will look like:
|
|
|
|
```promtextmetric
|
|
{__name__="PREFIX1_anomaly_score", for="PREFIX2_query_name_1", custom_label_1="label_name_1", custom_label_2="label_name_2", cpu=1, device="eth0", instance="node-exporter:9100"}
|
|
{__name__="PREFIX1_yhat_lower", for="PREFIX2_query_name_1", custom_label_1="label_name_1", custom_label_2="label_name_2", cpu=1, device="eth0", instance="node-exporter:9100"}
|
|
{__name__="PREFIX1_anomaly_score", for="PREFIX2_query_name_2", custom_label_1="label_name_1", custom_label_2="label_name_2", cpu=1, device="eth0", instance="node-exporter:9100"}
|
|
{__name__="PREFIX1_yhat_lower", for="PREFIX2_query_name_2", custom_label_1="label_name_1", custom_label_2="label_name_2", cpu=1, device="eth0", instance="node-exporter:9100"}
|
|
```
|
