How to Install Grafana

PLEASE NOTE:  Grafana is an internal tool for Elastifile support and cannot be used for customer usage. Elastifile does not support Grafana data cases.

Grafana is an open-source platform for monitoring and observability which allows Google Support Team to query, visualize, alert on and understand elastifile metrics

PLEASE NOTE: The procedure is valid for ECFS version 3.2.1.51 or above. 

Step 1 :  Login to the EMS by SSH

Step 2 :  Get the Grafana installer script

  • For version 3.2.1.43 or above, the script is located on the EMS at:

    /elastifile/emanage/scripts/manual_grafana_install.sh

  • For any previous version, download the script manually by running:

    gsutil cp gs://elastifile-software-repo/scripts/manual_grafana_install.sh /tmp/

Step 3 : Execute the Grafana creation command:

bash /tmp/manual_grafana_install.sh create --admin_password <PASSWORD>

Accessing the Grafana Instance

  • The install script will provide the gcloud command to run in order to create SSH tunnel. This is how the command will look like :
    gcloud compute ssh --project <PROJECT> --zone <ZONE>
    --tunnel-through-iap --ssh-flag "-fNL
    localhost:3000:<GRAFANA_INSTANCE_NAME>:3000" <EMS_INSTANCE_NAME>
  • Normal SSH tunnel can also be used to access the grafana instance.

  • After that you can connect via https://localhost:3000
