How To Install Prometheus And Grafana On Docker

Monitoring IT devices is incredibly important because it's in our interests to be proactive rather than reactive

For instance, it's better know when a hard drive has reached 70% capacity than it is to find a computer has stopped working because it ran out of disk space

Now there are lots of monitoring tools out there that you can use

But an interesting open source combination that's available for free is Prometheus and Grafana

So in this video, we show how to install Prometheus and Grafana on Docker

Thanks for your outstanding work. I was searching for Monitoring Proxmon with Prometheus and found your "Monitor Proxmox VE With Prometheus And Grafana". I really appreciate your practice of referencing the prerequisite videos at the start. I worked my way back through the chain to installing Docker in a VM under Proxmox. These were all very clear and informative. NOW I'M AN EXPERT! (ahem....)
Thanks again for your fine work!

Excellent tutorial David. Thank you for making it. I loved the step by step checks on all the components

[demianvandenberghe]

Thanks for explaining what 'unless-stopped' means 4 times😅
Great video👍

[DarrylGibbs]

Extremely clear, great stuff! Finally my homelab will have monitoring beyond the Proxmox summary.

[ariestuu]

Extremely useful, detailed and well explained tutorial, thank you so much. Finally somebody that explained each and every point understandably for a beginner

[ugeoxbz]

Useful breakdown of the steps involved. I did have a go at this about a year ago and made a bit of a pigs ear of the process. Think I'll be more successful this time following your guide :-)

[krishnachinnasamy]

Thank you for the excellent video. Calm, Clear and Detail Oriented. Love it 🙏

[ethanvolk]

Best tutorial I was able to find for this topic. Very easy to follow.

[vincentlim]

Excellent tutorial David. Thank you for making it.

[BillyDickson]

That's David, much appreciated, no doubt I'll get to in at some point in my homelab.

[tjutlkg]

Thank you for the video. Could you record a video instruction how to set up node-exporter).
I love u

Hi David, very clear tutorial, thanks! I have one question, do you know how to setup prometheus so that it monitors the containers of the hosts? (how many are running, how many are stopped, etc.) I could not find information that works on the net... :(

[davadvice]

Followed this and it worked a treat, I was wondering about the folder location "mkdir prometheus" and if it should be in my home or not. Thanks

Hey nice video, I am new to Dockers. Just want to ask you why are we installing node exportor first and not Prometheus?

[GowriAyyanar-elfn]

could you please make a video about, monitor nginx logs in grafana with prometheus

[majoraslayer]

My OCD really hates Docker Compose. Having 500 folders with just a single yaml file in them drives me up the wall, I wish we could normalize just using Docker run.

After hours of struggling through these steps, I cannot get past the fact that node exporter is not accessible no matter what port I set. If I try a curl, it fails. Prometheus runs fine but node exporter never gets a connection. Surely Im not the only person with this issue?

[jcmichel]

I can not get node Exporter working. Prometheus target is up. Node exporter is down...

[GowriAyyanar-elfn]

Error response from daemon: path / is mounted on/ but it is not a shared or slave mount ? Anyone please clarify this error

[santicapellalorenzo]

He seguido los pasos pero cuando llego al apartado de prometehus, me da error de ip y api, y no me deja ver la pantalla del puerto 9100
