Community shared telemetry telegraf container

Getting Started

Prerequisites

docker and a suitable config file
N.B. Disable SE Linux (or figure out how to get it to play well with Docker and local file mounts)

Install - Option 1

Clone this repo

git clone https://github.internet2.edu/internet2/grnoc-telegraf-docker.git

Build the container

docker build -t grnoc-telegraf-docker .

Install - Option 2

Pull the container from Docker Hub and tag the image so the following commands work.

docker pull karlnewell/grnoc-telegraf-docker
docker tag karlnewell/grnoc-telegraf-docker grnoc-telegraf-docker

Run

Place config file(s) in conf.d directory

docker run -d --name grnoc-telegraf-docker -v $(pwd)/conf.d:/etc/telegraf/grnoc/conf.d grnoc-telegraf-docker

Troubleshoot

docker logs grnoc-telegraf-docker

Test

Copy test.conf.example to conf.d/test.conf and run

docker run --rm --name grnoc-telegraf-docker -v $(pwd)/conf.d:/etc/telegraf/grnoc/conf.d grnoc-telegraf-docker

You should see telegraf logs and eventually a bunch of output related to cpu and memory.
ctrl-c to exit.
