Grafana configuration

  • Go to Grafana UI: http://localhost:3000
  • Login as "admin"/"admin" (You can change passwords later).
  • Choose add data source, then Add Influx DB with those settings:
  • Name "yourname" and type "InfluxDB", url default "http://localhost:8086", access: "proxy", database "gha", user "gha_admin", password "your_influx_pwd", min time interval "1h"
  • Test & save datasource, then proceed to dashboards.
  • Click Home, Import dashboard, Upload JSON file, choose dashboards saved as JSONs in grafana/dashboards/{{project}}dashboard_name.json, data source "InfluxDB" and save.
  • All dashboards are here: kubernetes, prometheus, opentracing.
  • Do the same for all defined dashboards. Use specific project tag, for example kubernetes, prometheus or opentracing.
  • Import main home for example kubernetes dahsboard.
  • Choose Admin -> Preferences, name Your organization (for example set it to XYZ)
  • Set You home dashboard to just imported "Dashboards".
  • You can also try to use current grafana.db to import everything at once, but be careful, because this is file is version specific.
  • When finished, copy final settings file grafana.db: cp /var/lib/grafana/grafana.db /var/www/html/, chmod go+r /var/www/html/grafana.db to be visible from web server.
  • Change Grafana admin/admin credentials to something secure!

To enable Grafana anonymous login, do the following:

  • Edit Grafana config file: /etc/grafana/grafana.ini or /usr/local/share/grafana/conf/defaults.ini or /usr/local/etc/grafana/grafana.ini:
  • Make sure You have options enabled (replace XYZ: with Your organization name):
[auth.anonymous]
enabled = true
org_name = XYZ
org_role = Read Only Editor

To enable Google analytics: google_analytics_ua_id = UA-XXXXXXXXX-1

  • Restart grafana server.

To restrict using GRAFANA by server IP, for example 147.72.202.77:3000, You can set:

  • http_addr = 127.0.0.1

This will only allow accessing Grafana from Apache proxy, please also see:

** This will not work for Grafana(s) running inside docker containers. ** To disallow access to docker containers from outside world you have to specify port mapping that only exposes port to localhost:

  • Instead -p 3001:3000 (that exposes 3001 to 0.0.0.0) use 127.0.0.1:3001.

  • To run multiple Grafana instances (for example to have multiple projects on the same host), You need to use Docker.

  • Instructions here MULTIPROJECT.md.

  • If want to secure InfluxDB and use Docker at the same time please see: SECURE_INFLUXDB.md.
