Plugin verification

Depending on the number of nodes and deployment setup, deploying a Mirantis OpenStack environment may take 30 minutes to several hours. Once the deployment is complete, you should see a deployment success notification with a link to the Grafana web UI as shown below.

Verify InfluxDB

To verify that the InfluxDB cluster is running properly, first retrieve the InfluxDB cluster VIP address:

1. On the Fuel Master node, find the IP address of a node where the InfluxDB server is installed using the fuel nodes command. For example:

   [root@fuel ~]# fuel nodes
   id | status   | name             | cluster | ip         | mac | roles            |
   ---|----------|------------------|---------|------------|-----|------------------|
   1  | ready    | Untitled (fa:87) | 1       | 10.109.0.8 | ... | influxdb_grafana |
   2  | ready    | Untitled (12:aa) | 1       | 10.109.0.3 | ... | influxdb_grafana |
   3  | ready    | Untitled (4e:6e) | 1       | 10.109.0.7 | ... | influxdb_grafana |
   

2. Log in to any of these nodes through SSH, for example, to node-1

3. Run the following command:

   root@node-1:~# hiera lma::influxdb::vip
   10.109.1.4
   

   Where 10.109.1.4 is the virtual IP address (VIP) of your InfluxDB cluster.

4. Using that VIP address, run the following command:

root@node-1:~# /usr/bin/influx -database lma -password lmapass \
--username root -host 10.109.1.4 -port 8086
Visit https://enterprise.influxdata.com to register for updates,
InfluxDB server management, and monitoring.
Connected to http://10.109.1.4:8086 version 0.10.0
InfluxDB shell 0.10.0
>

The example above shows that executing /usr/bin/influx starts an interactive CLI and automatically connects to the InfluxDB server. Then run the following command:

> show series

You should see a dump of all the time-series collected so far. Then run:

> show servers
name: data_nodes
----------------
id      http_addr       tcp_addr
1       node-1:8086     node-1:8088
3       node-2:8086     node-2:8088
5       node-3:8086     node-3:8088

name: meta_nodes
----------------
id      http_addr       tcp_addr
1       node-1:8091     node-1:8088
2       node-2:8091     node-2:8088
4       node-3:8091     node-3:8088

You should see a list of nodes participating in the InfluxDB cluster with their roles (data or meta).

Verify Grafana

1. Log in to the Fuel web UI.
2. In the Dashboard tab, click Grafana. If your DNS is not set up, enter the IP address and the port number.
3. Authenticate using your credentials.

You should be redirected to the Grafana Home Page where you can select a dashboard as shown below.
