Description

ACS had no per-secured-cluster signal for VM scanning: whether it is on, how many VMs Sensor is tracking, how many have been scraped, or which roxagent versions are in the fleet. That belongs on the existing cluster-metrics / Segment identity path, next to node count and CPU capacity.

Sensor's VM scraper now exposes a point-in-time Stats() snapshot in stats.go (tracked VMs, VMs with at least one successful scrape, and a version histogram of scanned VMs only, capped at the top 20 versions plus an other bucket). When VM scanning is enabled and the scraper is running, the cluster-metrics component copies that snapshot into a new optional VirtualMachineMetrics field on ClusterMetrics.

Every current Sensor advertises a VirtualMachineTelemetry capability on Hello, including when scanning is off. Central uses that to tell three cases apart:

  • capable Sensor with metrics present: scanning is on; set VM Scanning Enabled=true, tracked/scanned/unscanned counts, and sorted version JSON
  • capable Sensor with no metrics: scanning is confirmed off; zero the VM traits (including Roxagent Version Counts as []) so stale values do not linger
  • Sensor without the capability: leave existing VM traits untouched (predates this field)

VM Unscanned Count is derived on Central as tracked − scanned. Roxagent version counts are sent as a sorted JSON array trait; only VMs that have been scraped at least once appear in the histogram.

Backoff counts, backoff delays, and trailing scan-duration stats are omitted on purpose. They change every scrape cycle and belong on Prometheus, not on a secured-cluster identity trait.

The cluster-metrics pipeline treats a nil message injector as "no capability" so tests (and any nil-injector path) do not panic on HasCapability.

User-facing documentation

Internal Segment traits only; no operator-facing behavior change.

Testing and quality

  • the change is production ready: the change is GA, or otherwise the functionality is gated by a feature flag
  • CI results are inspected

Stats are only attached when ROX_VIRTUAL_MACHINES is on and the scraper exists. The Hello capability is unconditional so Central can zero traits when scanning is off on a current Sensor.

Automated testing

  • added unit tests
  • added e2e tests
  • added regression tests
  • added compatibility tests
  • modified existing tests

How I validated my change

  • CI
  • Manually verified on a cluster

AI-Assisted: cursor, generated scraper stats, ClusterMetrics wiring, Segment trait mapping, the nil-injector fix, and dropping temporal backoff/scan-duration fields; user reviewed.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added virtual machine telemetry to cluster metrics.
    • Reports tracked VMs, scanned VMs, and Rox Agent version counts.
    • Groups and limits version data for compact reporting.
  • Enhancements
    • Sends telemetry only when supported by the connected Sensor.
    • Sensors now advertise virtual machine telemetry capability.
    • Tracks each VM’s latest reported agent version.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevented replacement VMs from inheriting stale scan state.

Walkthrough

Adds VM telemetry to cluster metrics and secured-cluster identity data. Sensors advertise VM telemetry capability. VM scrapers record agent versions and expose bounded fleet statistics. Central generates capability-aware VM traits.

Changes

Virtual machine telemetry

Layer / File(s) Summary
Telemetry contracts and capability advertisement
proto/internalapi/central/cluster_metrics.proto, pkg/centralsensor/caps_list.go, sensor/common/sensor/central_communication_impl.go
Defines VM metrics for tracked VMs, scanned VMs, and agent-version counts. Adds and advertises VirtualMachineTelemetryCap.
VM scraper statistics
sensor/common/virtualmachine/vmscraper/scraper.go, sensor/common/virtualmachine/vmscraper/stats.go, sensor/common/virtualmachine/vmscraper/*_test.go
Stores the last reported agent version. Resets state for replacement VMs. Exposes bounded, deterministic fleet statistics.
Cluster metrics integration
sensor/kubernetes/clustermetrics/cluster_metrics.go, sensor/kubernetes/clustermetrics/cluster_metrics_test.go, sensor/kubernetes/sensor/sensor.go
Passes the VM scraper to cluster metrics. Emits VM statistics when a source exists and omits them for nil or typed-nil sources.
Central identity telemetry traits
central/cluster/datastore/telemetry.go, central/cluster/datastore/telemetry_test.go, central/sensor/service/pipeline/clustermetrics/pipeline.go, central/sensor/service/pipeline/clustermetrics/pipeline_test.go
Passes capability status to secured-cluster identity updates. Generates deterministic VM traits for supported Sensors and omits them for unsupported Sensors.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6b536

A replaced VM can inherit stale scan and version telemetry from its predecessor, causing fleet metrics to report incorrect tracked, scanned, or version data. This bounded correctness issue should be fixed before merging.

Define the full VirtualMachineMetrics and ScanDurationStats shape up
front. Fields 3-6 (backoff, scan_duration) are declared here but will
be populated in a follow-up part that depends on the retry-backoff PR.

Capture lastAgentVersion from ResponseMeta on each successful scrape
(already read but discarded). Stats() iterates vmState under s.mu to
produce TrackedVMs, VMsScanned, and VersionCounts (top-20 + "other" cap,
empty version bucketed as "unknown").

VMsInBackoff, AvgBackoff, MaxBackoff, ScanDuration are declared on the
Stats struct but left zero-valued until Part 3, which depends on the
per-VM retry backoff PR (ROX-35445).

Add VMStatsSource interface to clustermetrics package. NewWithInterval
now accepts an optional VMStatsSource; when non-nil, collectMetrics
populates VirtualMachineMetrics with tracked_vms, vms_scanned, and
roxagent_version_counts. sensor.go passes the VMScraper instance when
VM scanning is enabled, nil otherwise.

Declared on every Hello regardless of whether VM scanning is currently
enabled, so Central can distinguish "feature off on a new Sensor" from
"old Sensor that predates VM telemetry" and zero stale traits only in
the former case.

Three-way case split on (HasCapability, GetVirtualMachineMetrics):
- capable + non-nil: set VM Scanning Enabled=true with counts
- capable + nil: zero all VM traits (feature confirmed off)
- no capability: leave existing traits untouched (old Sensor)

Roxagent version counts are serialized as a sorted JSON array.
UpdateSecuredClusterIdentity gains a hasVMTelemetryCap parameter;
the pipeline reads it from the connection's capability set.

Verify that VMScraper Stats() flows through collectMetrics and populates
the VirtualMachineMetrics proto end-to-end.

Partially generated by AI (ROX-35448).

Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
The cluster-metrics pipeline called HasCapability on the injector
unconditionally, which panics when tests (and any nil-injector path)
pass a nil MessageInjector. Treat nil as lacking the capability, and
assert the full Segment trait map including empty/sorted version JSON.

User request: fix the nil-injector panic and incomplete buildVMTraits
assertions, then commit.

Partially generated by AI.
Those values fluctuate every scrape cycle and belong on Prometheus, not
secured-cluster Segment identity. Keep tracked/scanned counts and the
roxagent version histogram; renumber the version map to field 3.

User request: drop vms_in_backoff, avg/max backoff, and scan_duration
from VirtualMachineMetrics and update the PR.

Partially generated by AI.
Unscanned is tracked minus scanned so coverage is queryable without
parsing JSON. Never-scraped VMs are omitted from the version mix.
Empty AgentVersion stays in the JSON as "unknown"; it is not a
Segment scalar because a successful scrape with no version is a
defect, not fleet shape.

User request: keep tracked/scanned/unscanned; drop the unknown-version
scalar; histogram only for scanned agent versions.

297-303: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Reset state when the VM ID changes.

vm.Key() uses namespace and name, but vmID identifies the VM instance. A recreated VM can reuse the same key with a new ID. Lines 297-303 update only vmID, so the replacement inherits the prior VM's generation, epoch, scan time, and agent version. Stats() can then report the replacement as scanned before its first scrape.

Replace the state when st.vmID != vm.ID. Set nextAttemptAt to now. Add a test for a same-key VM replacement with a different ID.

Proposed fix
 			st, ok := s.vmState[key]
-			if !ok {
+			if !ok || st.vmID != vm.ID {
 				st = &vmState{nextAttemptAt: now, vmID: vm.ID}
 				s.vmState[key] = st
 			}

… miss

CreateSensor was passing a duplicated 5m poll interval into NewWithInterval.
New now takes vmStats and always uses defaultInterval. The same-key UID test
asserts the replacement is due immediately, not on the inherited poll timer.
Roxagent version counts default to "[]" so a marshal error cannot omit the
Segment trait and leave a stale value.

Prompt: address review items 1 (New + defaultInterval), 2 (due-now assertion),
and 4 (marshal fallback to "[]").

Fence all state updates from a replaced VM.

commitVMState and scheduleAfterAttempt update s.vmState[key] without checking the scraped VM ID. Pass the scraped VM ID to both methods and ignore updates when the current state has a different ID. Add a regression test that blocks an old scrape, reconciles uid-new, then completes the old scrape.

The VM state update paths commitVMState and scheduleAfterAttempt must be fenced
against stale scrapes from a replaced VM. Pass the scraped VM ID into both
methods and ignore updates when s.vmState[key] is absent or has a different VM
ID, while preserving updates for the matching VM; add a regression test that
blocks an old scrape, reconciles uid-new, then completes the old scrape.
