Prerequisites of Using Monitoring Dashboards

Version

Application Scenario

For the FineOps monitoring dashboard to properly display project data, the following prerequisites must be met.

This document details all relevant conditions and requirements.

Scope

The monitoring dashboard in this document refers to the dashboards in the following two positions.

1. All dashboards in Resource Management.

2. All dashboards on the tab pages (except for Health Monitoring and Traffic Monitoring) under Project Management> Project Monitoring.

Data flows through three stages before appearing in the monitoring dashboards.

1. The project's OPS Agent component actively collects log data from servers and components.

2. The project's OPS Agent component transmits data to FineOps's Nginx component.

3. FineOps processes and displays the received data.

Confirming the Operating System Version of the Project Server

• The monitoring function is not supported for O&M projects deployed on servers with Windows operating systems.

• For O&M projects deployed on servers with Linux operating systems, the operating systems with versions later than CentOS 7 are recommended. Operating systems with lower versions may cause abnormal returns for some node metrics.

Ensuring Installation of the OPS Agent Component on the Project

The data in the monitoring dashboard is collected by the project's OPS Agent component.

1. FineOps-deployed projects have this component installed by default and require no additional handling.

2. For projects not deployed via FineOps, you need to use an additional plugin to implement the OPS Agent functionality when connecting them to FineOps. Otherwise, data cannot be properly transmitted to the dashboard.

3. Ensure that the project has the System O&M plugin of V3.0.0 or later versions installed.

Ensuring Port Connectivity Between the Project and FineOps

The project's OPS Agent component transmits data to FineOps.

Ensure that the OPS Agent component on each server of the O&M project can access the following ports of FineOps:

1. The default port of FineOps's SkyWalking OAP component: 11800

2. The default port of FineOps's Nginx component:

• The component port number of FineOps deployed by a root user: 80

• The component port number of FineOps deployed by a non-root user: 8090

• The component port number of FineOps configured with SSL: 443

Ensuring Normal Operation of O&M Components

The monitoring dashboard function is provided by the  Grafana and Prometheus components.

Ensure these components run properly to guarantee normal dashboard display.

Log in to FineOps as the admin, choose Platform Management > O&M Component, and start corresponding components.
