shift-rmm VS windows_exporter

I have just published a dashboard to the grafana marketpalce that includes showing failed services. this comes with shift-mon

I love Victoriametrics and have an ansible role that setup Victoriametrics, Grafana, and Loki using podman on a Linux VM, and is super easy to run. The only thing is switching to datadog to on prem is your team might not have the time available to manage the system or setup something to watch the watcher like having the VM server send metrics to Grafana cloud.

Grafana cloud has a two week trial that should give you a good indication of what your usage is. If you have spare hardware self hosting can be easy here is my project that turns a vm into a monitoring stack based around grafana

This is query I use for host down alerts its not perfect source

Proxmox has the ability to ship metrics to influxdb or graphite without installing an agent. I use shift-mon which uses Victoriametrics and grafana under the hood

I use and love Victoriametrics, Telegraf, and grafana for monitoring proxmox, docker, and other infrastructure. Here is a repo that has an Ansible role to set all of it for you. Grafana cloud also has a free tier that is good for a lot of homelabs

I uploaded my grafana dashboard and extra config for opnsense to grafana's dashboard site. This a uses Victoriametrics for metrics, Loki for logs, and grafana for visualization. The Ansible roles to set it all up are found on gitlab

2 and 3 You can use the GUI in grafana to build Prometheus queries in grafana. I also prefer push over pull. I found out Victoriametrics is a thing and let's you push data as if it was influxdbv1 and add it to grafana as a promtheus data source. I deploy everything via ansible and here is the link to the repo

Prometheus might not be the best tool I prefer Telegraf and Victoriametrics so I can push metrics and still query it as if it where Prometheus. My setup can be found here

if you want to monitor your windows machine you can install a windows exporter from here. After installing you can start the service to start the windows exporter

The windows_exporter iis module has a number of app pool metrics.

Check out the windows_exporter. It uses native OS calls instead of WMI where it can to reduce overhead.

Would this do what you're asking for? https://github.com/prometheus-community/windows_exporter

Windows-exporter => InfluxDB => Grafana which displays on a 10” tablet in the lounge. I know what the normal CPU, RAM, Disk write number should be so it’s easy to see everything is good at a glance. Grafana dashboard.

Try the windows exporter. It uses native calls for a lot of the common data gathering. Much more efficient than WMI.

Try windows_exporter with process-collector whitelist https://github.com/prometheus-community/windows_exporter/blob/master/docs/collector.process.md

I deployed Prometheus Windows Exporter on AKS (Kubernetes v. 1.24.6) using the following instructions: https://github.com/prometheus-community/windows_exporter/blob/master/kubernetes/kubernetes.md
