Use daos admin node to install and run Grafana

In order to run Grafana, daos server must have telemetry port defined in daos_server.yml (9191)

Install Prometheus on wolf daos admin node

mkdir ~/prometheus
dmg telemetry config -i /home/mjean/prometheus
		Downloading and installing Prometheus...

		Wrote DAOS monitoring config to /home/mjean/.prometheus.yml)

To collect data from the server nodes; they will need to be added to the ~/.prometheus.yml

ex:

  - targets:
    - localhost:9191
 to 
  - targets:
    - wolf-118:9191
    - wolf-119:9191
    - wolf-120:9191
    - wolf-121:9191

(mjmac) It's worth noting here that if you add the hosts to your ~/.daos_control.yml or some other control config file that you use with dmg -o /path/to/config.yml, they will automatically be added to your prometheus configuration.

Starting Prometheus

due to DAOS-8104 ; prometheus should be manually started with

./prometheus --config_file=~/.prometheus.yml;

Only use the cmd below after DAOS-8104 is fixed

dmg telemetry run -i /home/mjean/prometheus

Install Grafana on wolf daos admin node

https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/installation/

Download package from the grafana web site

	Downloads:
	https://grafana.com/grafana/download
	
	For Centos:
	
	wget https://dl.grafana.com/oss/release/grafana-8.0.6-1.x86_64.rpm
	sudo yum install grafana-8.0.6-1.x86_64.rpm
	
	For SLES
	
	wget https://dl.grafana.com/oss/release/grafana-8.0.6-1.x86_64.rpm
	sudo rpm -i --nodeps grafana-8.0.6-1.x86_64.rpm

After it is installed, start grafana services on daos admin node:

	sudo systemctl daemon-reload
	sudo systemctl start grafana-server
	sudo systemctl status grafana-server
	
	Configure the Grafana server to start at boot:
	sudo systemctl enable grafana-server

Prometheus does not start on boot so will need to manaually re-start

Starting Grafana on a wolf daos admin node:

In order to monitor metrics on wolf and running grafana from windows you will need to setup port forwarding. Install Firefox on windows machine and setup a manual proxy in network settings Port must match the forwarded port in putty setup below

Use putty to setup port forwarding/tunnel

Open the connection to wolf and login as you would normally log into wolf

Open a connection to the wolf node running the Grafana service using the FireFox browser

Startup Grafana dashboard using FireFox

 http://wolf-xx:3000

 Login with admin/admin.   It will prompt you to change the admin password

Before adding the daos dashboard to grafana; you will need to add prometheus data source. (It should prompt you to add the source initially)

 NOTE: Prometheus uses wolf-xx:9090

Add prometheus data source

import grafana metrics in the Prometheus Dashbord

import DAOS-Grafana-Dashboard.json from github https://github.com/daos-stack/daos/tree/master/utils/grafana

Open the daos dashboard and the monitor should start collecting metrics when the daos servers have started

This is a snapshot of daos metrics while soak was runing on shared cluster 8 servers (4 nodes) and 5 clients
