Prometheus
Install prometheus.service on an instance if it is running something that
exports custom Prometheus metrics. In particular, museum does.
If it is an instance whose metrics (CPU, disk, RAM etc) we want to monitor, also
install node-exporter.service after installing
node-exporter itself (Note
that our prepare-instance script already installs node-exporter) .
Installing
Prometheus doesn't currently support environment variables in config file, so
remember to change the hardcoded XX-HOSTNAME too in addition to adding the
remote_write configuration.
scp services/prometheus/prometheus.* <instance>:
scp services/prometheus/node-exporter.service <instance>:
nano prometheus.yml
sudo mv prometheus.yml /root/prometheus.yml
sudo mv prometheus.service /etc/systemd/system/prometheus.service
sudo mv node-exporter.service /etc/systemd/system/node-exporter.service
Tell systemd to pick up new service definitions, enable the units (so that they automatically start on boot going forward), and start them.
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now node-exporter
sudo systemctl enable --now prometheus
