Setting up IBM Spectrum Scale performance monitoring bridge for Grafana
Follow these steps to set up the IBM Spectrum Scale™ performance monitoring bridge for Grafana.
The IBM Spectrum Scale system must run version 4.2.2 or above. Run the mmlsconfig command to view the current configuration of a GPFS™ cluster.
All the graphical charts that are displayed in Grafana are developed based on the performance data collected by the IBM Spectrum Scale performance monitoring tool. The performance monitoring tool packages are included in the IBM Spectrum Scale self-extracting package and get installed automatically during the IBM Spectrum Scale installation with the spectrumscale installation toolkit. If you did not use the spectrumscale installation toolkit or disabled the performance monitoring installation during your system setup, install the performance monitoring tool manually. For more information on manually installing the performance monitoring tool, see Manually installing the Performance Monitoring tool in the IBM Spectrum Scale: Concepts, Planning, and Installation Guide.
