Setting up a Grafana Dashboard for Cardano Pool

[os11k]

Hi @max_ruas !

That means that needed metrics are being published by cardano-node. Now you need to go to explore menu of Grafana and try to find it. if you can’t find it, please share with me your prometheus.yml config

[max_ruas]

Sample config for Prometheus.

global:
  scrape_interval:     15s # Set the scrape interval to every 15 seconds. Default is every 1 minute.
  evaluation_interval: 15s # Evaluate rules every 15 seconds. The default is every 1 minute.
  # scrape_timeout is set to the global default (10s).

  # Attach these labels to any time series or alerts when communicating with
  # external systems (federation, remote storage, Alertmanager).
  external_labels:
      monitor: 'example'

# Alertmanager configuration
alerting:
  alertmanagers:
  - static_configs:
    - targets: ['localhost:9093']

# Load rules once and periodically evaluate them according to the global 'evaluation_interval'.
rule_files:
  # - "first_rules.yml"
  # - "second_rules.yml"

# A scrape configuration containing exactly one endpoint to scrape:
# Here it's Prometheus itself.
scrape_configs:
  # The job name is added as a label `job=<job_name>` to any timeseries scraped from this config.
  - job_name: 'prometheus'

    # Override the global default and scrape targets from this job every 5 seconds.
    scrape_interval: 5s
    scrape_timeout: 5s

    # metrics_path defaults to '/metrics'
    # scheme defaults to 'http'.

    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:9090']

  - job_name: node
    # If prometheus-node-exporter is installed, grab stats about the local
    # machine by default.
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:9100'] ```

Seems you don’t have it in your prometheus.yml

you should have targets defined with localhost:12798

P.S.
I would recommend you to put your config in code block, otherwise it a bit of mess and hard to view.

You should use ``` for beginning of code block and end:

something like this:
```
CODE
```

Hi thank you,
can you give me an example I think I didn’t get it

[max_ruas]

It Worked I had to take the ChainDB from the config on grafana panel. example:
from
cardano_node_ChainDB_metrics_slotInEpoch_int
to
cardano_node_metrics_slotInEpoch_int

thank you both!!!
@SNSKY and @os11k

[max_ruas]

Thanks again all,

Now I’m missing this panels: can someone please share the correct configuration,
I’m running Ubuntu

Node Bandwidth (bps)
Slot length
Cardano Service Restarts Per Hour
Rejected blocks since last restart
Slot leading share (% of slots led)
Cluster Aggregate Bandwidth (bps)
Node R$S (allocated memory in RAM, in MB)
Current KES Period
Cheers

Hi @max_ruas !

You need to check what metrics are being used for those panels and try to find them in Grafana explore. Maybe again you need to remove “ChainDB” word or similar. I don’t use those panels so for me it is unclear what you are missing.

[SNSKY]

These seem to be some old panels so the metrics might be outdated. Use the one in my tutorial above.

[max_ruas]

Thanks I will check it out

[Zyroxa]

Hey i do have an issue with step 5.

I was able to setup a dashboard and i also do see the panels from my relays. But there are no data shown from the block producer itself.

@SNSKY are you still around?

[SNSKY]

Hi, this post is outdated. Follow the Step 5 of the current tutorial - SPO Grafana Tutorial - SNSKY - Summer Night SKY Pool

[Zyroxa]

Okay now im a step further But right now i do have the problem that i dont get the stats from my bp in the panels.

Like i do see the infos from adapools like pledge etc. but i dont see stuff like peers (core), kes key rotation etc.

Do you have an idea what i did wrong?

[SNSKY]

check whether your grafana node is receiving any data from from the BP
http://localhost:9090/targets
if you are not receiving any data, check your firewall settings on the BP

[Zyroxa]

Ive opened the port 9100 and 12798. Am i missing something? Oo

[SNSKY]

please send screenshot of http://localhost:9090/targets

[JonSolo]

will this guide work as is for ubuntu 22 as well?

[SNSKY]

Yes…it will

[mcvetyty]

Ever since upgrading my nodes to v8.0.0, the Connected Peers metric (cardano_node_metrics_connectedPeers_int {alias=“block-producer-node”}) no longer reports any data… Anyone else have this issue?

[Terminada]

If you run in P2P mode this might provide enough eye-candy:

curl -s -H 'Accept: application/json' http:/localhost:12788 | jq '.cardano.node.metrics.connectionManager'
{
  "duplexConns": {
    "type": "g",
    "val": 17
  },
  "incomingConns": {
    "type": "g",
    "val": 15
  },
  "outgoingConns": {
    "type": "g",
    "val": 50
  },
  "prunableConns": {
    "type": "g",
    "val": 1
  },
  "unidirectionalConns": {
    "type": "g",
    "val": 47
  }
}

Hi,

Yes it is renamed to cardano_node_metrics_peers_connectedPeers_int
