Grafana not pulling data #16

Closed Karlheinzniebuhr closed 5 years ago

Karlheinzniebuhr commented 5 years ago

I'm not able to make a working query (tested in prometheus) to pull data into Grafana. The option "metrics" seems to be nonexistent in Graphs. Any idea or example on how to create a graph in Grafana?

Try first getting some metrics from prometheus: Open http://IP:9090

type “node_memory_MemFree_bytes” then click on “Execute” and then click on “Graph”

You can try to visualize other metrics:

node_boot_time_seconds node_filesystem_free_bytes node_filesystem_free_bytes{fstype="xfs|ext4"} node_filesystem_size_bytes

I found out that I had to press "e" while hovering over a graph. This feature is very unintuitive if there is no menu option anywhere to be found.
