Currently no new dashboards are hardcoded in nmon2influxdb. It's because the import functionality is still new and it's not fixed what is the best way to display this metrics in Grafana. So the dashboard will evolve a lot in the following weeks. It's easier to share the dashboards outside of the tool for now.
With this release you have 2 dashboards available for download:
- hmc_partition.json
This dashboard use grafana templating to display partition informations.
You can import the dashboard with nmon2influxdb: {{< highlight batch >}} nmon2influxdb dashboard hmc_partition.json {{}}
{{< gallery image="hmc_partition.png" >}}
- hmc_system.json
You can import the dashboard with nmon2influxdb: {{< highlight batch >}} nmon2influxdb dashboard hmc_partition.json {{}}
{{< gallery image="hmc_system.png" >}}
{{< highlight toml >}} hmc_server="mylab" hmc_user="hscroot" hmc_password="abc123" hmc_managed_system="mysystem" hmc_database="nmon2influxdbHMC" hmc_data_retention="40d" {{< /highlight >}}
hmc_user and hmc_password provides credentials to login on the HMC specified by hmc_server.
Note: Connection is done on port 12443.
By default, another influxdb database is used to store HMC metrics, hmc_database allows to change the default value(nmon2influxdbHMC).
No data retention is set by default but it's possible to make data expires with the parameter hmc_data_retention.
