#Graphing atop metrics in grafana/influxdb

Just simple way to create graphics from atop metrics. Now it works for:

• CPU information
• cpu infirmation per core
• CPL CPU load statistic
• MEM Memory usage statistics
• SWP swapping statistics
• PAG paging statistics
• LVM/MDD/DSK disk subsystem statistics
• NET network statistics per interface and upper level

NOT working for process-level statistics:

• "PRG" (general),
• "PRC" (cpu),
• "PRM" (memory),
• "PRD" (disk, only if the kernel-patch has been installed)
• "PRN" (network, only if the kernel-patch has been installed).

General workflow

###What we have to do:

1. Export necessary metrics from atop binary logs
2. Convert data to the format for export by InfluxDB
3. Push data to the InfluxDB
4. have a graphics in graphana

###How we can do that:

####1. build containers.

Assume you have docker installed. Let's checkout repo

# git clone [email protected]:aplsms/atop-graph.git
Cloning into 'atop-graph'...
Warning: Permanently added the RSA host key for IP address '192.30.253.113' to the list of known hosts.

We are ready to build containers

# cd atop-graph
# ./build

please ignore "Errors" -- just attempt to remove nonexistant containers

####2. convert the logs

Copy all your logs to ./src directory, and convert it.

# find ./src  -type f
./src/D1/dsvtxvcdbng01_atop_20160705
./src/D1/dsvtxvcdbng01_atop_20160706

[Some lines skipped ...]

./src/D2/dsvtxvCkstn02_atop_20160706
./src/D2/dsvtxvCkstn02_atop_20160707
# ./convert

####3. starting grafana and pushing data to InfluxDB

# ./start_grafana

####4. Login to grafana, and cgoose proper dashboard and timeframe

In a browser go to http://<docker-ip>:3000/. Login: admin, Password: admin

PS. Work in progress!
