@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss Exactly
-
@Viss @viq Yeah, or rather, you add the VictoriaMetrics server as a data source in grafana and it will read the timeseries from it. You can setup the data source __twice__ as prometheus AND victoriametrics (via the plug in) if you want, which lets you both do graphql and also just straight up use generic prometheus dashboards.
@mr_daemon @viq oh handy! yeah that sounds like a better layout. Ideally, I'd like to have as streamlined a setup as possible, with the fewest 'things i have to run that expose ports and require systemd' as possible
-
@mr_daemon @viq in my circumstance im looking at like.. maybe five actual servers, all of which are going to be incus container hosts - and since each host is setup to just let any of the containers use all the resources of the box, i dont think i need to go beyond just monitoring the entire server as a whole. i noticed there are rabbitmq plugins which is great, i havent found a postgres one yet (but im sure i just havent looked hard enough)

@mr_daemon @viq oh it looks like incus has a writeup on how to do it: https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/docs/main/metrics/

@mr_daemon
I've seen people say that VictoriaMetrics is more pleasant to work with. But, for sake of completeness: with Prometheus you have equivalent components in exact same number, places, with same data flow.
@Viss -
@Viss You might have a look at Telegraf to collect metrics, and then shove them into InfluxDB. You can query InfluxDB with Grafana or use Chronograf that comes with the Influx stuff.

@dha my objective is to have as little plumbing and middlware as possible. i dont want to have to run five services just to get graphs for cpu and memory on a few servers.
-
@DaveMWilburn @hrbrmstr chiefly, basic system info. disk, ram, cpu, network usage at a minimum, if its got hooks to showme postres stats, that would be rad, bonus points for it can show me rabbitmq stats.
thats basically it.
i just need dashboard lights for my asm scanning platform so that when i do the big linkedin (urk) post announcing the promo and new pricing, and if i get a swell of new customers, i want to see that shit scale livebyobu is great for that, but no history
-
@Viss LibreMNS collects data via snmpd and does the graphing.
-
@Viss I use grafana with the sqlite plugin/backend, works pretty well. In sqlite I have a table with a timestamp and the information I want to plot. Table is written by cron.

@xemer nice!
-
@hrbrmstr @DaveMWilburn yeah same. cacti for me
-
@h2onolan thats a good question - i have no idea. I need to build out some kinda monitoring/alerting system for orbital after this hetzner nonsense. i need to know the instant a scanning node goes away if some cloud host decides they dont ilke me anymore and doesnt say anything first.
-
@steely_glint @h2onolan this does the same, the nodes pull jobs off the queue, but if its mid-stream and vanishes, i would like to know

@Viss I think we had a timeout and automatically reissued to the next node that asked - I like my sleep! (and if an occasional scan got done twice I didn't care)

@steely_glint yeah, same here, but i would also like to understand why a node vanished, because there may be something to investigate

@Viss fair - things were much more unreliable 20 years ago, things were always breaking!
-
@hrbrmstr @DaveMWilburn yeah same. cacti for me
@Viss @hrbrmstr @DaveMWilburn I think my only experience with cacti is pwning it on HTB

@Viss Too late, I stopped using DDG search months ago because it kept jamming the AI back in over and over. I use Startpage now
