meta-monitoring-chart

This is a meta-monitoring chart for GEL, GEM and GET. It should be installed in a separate namespace next to GEM, GEL or GET installations.

Preparation

Create a values.yaml file based on the default one.

1. Add or remove the namespaces to monitor in the namespacesToMonitor setting

2. Set the cluster name in the clusterName setting. This will be added as a label to all logs, metrics and traces.

3. Create a meta namespace.

Local and cloud modes

The chart has 2 modes: local and cloud. In the local mode logs, metrics and traces are sent to small Loki, Mimir and Tempo installations running in the meta-monitoring namespace.

To enable local mode set local.enabled to true.

In the cloud mode the logs, metrics and traces are sent to

To enable cloud mode set cloud.enabled to true. The endpoint, username and password settings for your Grafana Cloud logs, metrics and traces instances have to be filled in as well.

Both modes can be enabled at the same time.

Installation

helm install -n meta -f values.yaml meta ./charts/meta-monitoring
