Grafana dashboard doesn’t load data source though the data source is working by testing.
The detail is described like the below.
Json file is here
I am running Prometheus and Grafana on docker-swarm.
You should not add the node exporter but the prometheus server. Sure you have the right port to prometheus?
What do you mean I should not use node-exporter?
node-exporter is Prometheus exporter for machine metrics, I run it with Docker as well.Docker image is here
I am sure I am using the port for the endpoint(node-exporter).
Save & Test is saying Data source is working meaning I am using the right port.Prometheus target node-exporter is up on the port in the second screenshot.Node exporter is the collector, the address you specify in grafana should be prometheus (usually port 9090 i think)
Sorry, I am very new at Grafana and Prometheus .
As my understanding, Prometheus use pull method to collect metrics from Prometheus exporter and I assume that Grafana also just can pull the Prometheus exporter itself by registering Prometheus type data source the same as Prometheus Server.
However, you seem to be saying that I should set data source URL as Prometheus Server itself.
I did try but It seems to scrape only prometheus(localhost:9090) endpoint metrics but node_exporter(node_exporter:9100) endpoint (Please refer the below Prometheus config), is it right?
global:
scrape_interval: 5s
external_labels:
monitor: 'my_monitor'
scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'prometheus'
static_configs:
- targets: ['localhost:9090']
- job_name: 'node_exporter'
static_configs:
- targets: ['node_exporter:9100']
