Pre-meeting Notes

0x3639

• Added `grafana.sh` https://github.com/go-zenon/go/blob/main/grafana.sh. This automates the installation of grafana, node_exporter & promethesus. It creates a default promethesus datasource, scrapes the node_exporter endpoint, and installs a node_exporter dashboard. Tested on amd64. Need to add arm64 support.
• Started to investigate a custom dashboard for znnd. I created this for docker previous. It leveraged the JSON API data source for Grafana. However, this plugin is now in maintenance mode, no new features will be added. Grafana recommends using the Infinity data source plugin instead.
• I started to investigate the Infinity data source plugin. It will be used to scrape the api endpoints to report `syncStatus` and other important metrics.
• Next we can consider installing Loki to manage log files. We can discuss at the meeting.
