Description

This module deploys and configures netdata. Netdata is a system for distributed real-time performance and health monitoring. More can be found on the netdata website.

Setup

Setup requirements

This module requires you have a compatible OS and a functioning puppet infrastructure.

Usage

Basic usage

To deploy and configure default netdata...

class {'::netdata': }

To remove a deployed netdata...

class {'::netdata': ensure => 'absent'}

Note, ensure => 'absent' is not currently supported on Ubuntu 14.04 due to the way puppet manages upstart.

Advanced useage

To configure netdata as a Slave. Note, the GUID displayed here is just an example.

class {'::netdata':
  remote_master        => 'netdata-master.example.com',
  remote_master_apikey => '9a83b18a-5cdb-4baf-8958-ad291ab781d3',
}

netdata::stream To configure netdata as a Master

class {'::netdata':
  master => true,
}

In order for netdata metrics to stream to a master, you must define a netdata stream API key. You can generate a GUID with uuidgen. More information can be found on netdata replication here.

netdata::stream {'9a83b18a-5cdb-4baf-8958-ad291ab781d3': }

To configure netdata as a Proxy

class {'::netdata':
  master               => true,
  remote_master        => 'netdata-master.example.com',
  remote_master_apikey => '9a83b18a-5cdb-4baf-8958-ad291ab781d3',
}

netdata::stream {'9a83b18a-5cdb-4baf-8958-ad291ab781d3': }
