This Dashboard offers you information about your Postgres instance. CPU Usage, RAM Usage, Deadlocks, Fetch, Update, Return Data and more.
In the InfluxDB UI, go to Settings->Templates and enter this URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/influxdata/community-templates/master/postgresql/postgres.yml
If you have your InfluxDB credentials configured in the CLI, you can install this template with:
influx apply -u https://raw.githubusercontent.com/influxdata/community-templates/master/postgresql/postgres.yml
- 1 Telegraf Configuration: 'postgres-config
- 1 Dashboards: 'Postgres'
- 1 Label: 'postgres'
- 1 Bucket: 'postgres'
General instructions on using InfluxDB Templates can be found in the use a template document.
Telegraf Configuration requires the following environment variables
- `INFLUX_TOKEN` - The token with the permissions to read Telegraf configs and write data to the `telegraf` bucket. You can just use your operator token to get started.
- `INFLUX_ORG` - The name of your Organization.
- `INFLUX_HOST` - The address of you InfluxDB
- `INFLUX_BUCKET` - The name of the Bucket. If you going to use the bucket included, you need to export the variable. Ex: ```export INFLUX_BUCKET=postgres```
In order to use this Dashboard, you need to specify the connection string to the Postgres instance as variable. The same needs to define user and password (read only recommended)
ex: $ export PSQL_STRING_CONNECTIONG=postgres://postgres:mysecretpassword@localhost:5432
