Monitoring Large Scale Deployments

You can monitor your Uyuni environment using Prometheus and Grafana. Uyuni Server and Proxy are able to provide self-health metrics. You can also install and manage a number of Prometheus exporters on clients.

Prometheus and Grafana packages are included in the Uyuni Client Tools for SUSE Linux Enterprise 12, SUSE Linux Enterprise 15, CentOS 7, CentOS 8 and openSUSE 15.x.

You need to install Prometheus and Grafana on a machine separate from the Uyuni Server. We recommend you use a managed client as your monitoring server.

It is recommended to monitor the Salt event bus in the large scale deployments with Saline to identify possible bottlenecks.
