Monitoring with Grafana InfluxDB and Telegraf

In this tutorial, How to monitor your system use Grafana InfluxDB and Telegraf. My example Grafana InfluxDB and Telegraf as the picture below:

• Server01 -> 192.168.3.5
• Server02 -> 192.168.3.6
• InfluxDB and Grafana -> 192.168.3.4

Install Grafana Influxdb and Telegraf on Linux

• InfluxDB
• Grafana
• Telegraf

Configure Grafana InfluxDB and Telegraf

InfluxDB configure

For my example, create 2 Databases with a 14-day retention policy.

[root@DevopsRoles ~]# influx
Connected to http://localhost:8086 version 1.7.6
InfluxDB shell version: 1.7.6
Enter an InfluxQL query
> show databases
name: databases
name
----
telegraf
mydb
_internal
> CREATE DATABASE mydb WITH DURATION 14d
> CREATE DATABASE telegraf WITH DURATION 14d

Open and edit file /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf as below

[[opentsdb]]		
   enabled = true		
   bind-address = ":4243"		
   database = "mydb"		
[[opentsdb]]		
   enabled = true		
   bind-address = ":4242"		
   database = "telegraf"

Telegraf Configure

Example create file configure as below

$ telegraf -sample-config -input-filter cpu:mem:swap:net -output-filter influxdb > telegraf.conf

Edit and modify file /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf for server01

[[outputs.influxdb]]		
  urls = ["http://192.168.3.4:8086"]		
  database = "telegraf"	

Grafana Configure

Add Data Sources for InfluxDB of Server01 as the picture below

Import Telegraf JSON template as the picture below

The result Monitoring with Grafana InfluxDB and Telegraf
