Grafana Installation

Step 1: Install Grafana repository

In this step, we install the latest stable version of Grafana for data visualization.

Note: From a configuration standpoint, it will be easier to install Grafana on the same host as InfluxDB.

1. Create a new grafana.repo file at:

/etc/yum.repos.d/grafana.repo

2. Add the following to the file:

[grafana]
name = grafana
baseurl = https://packages.grafana.com/oss/rpm
repo_gpgcheck = 1
enabled = 1
gpgcheck = 1
gpgkey = https://packages.grafana.com/gpg.key
sslverify = 1
sslcacert = /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt

Step 2: Install Grafana

Now install Grafana on your monitoring server. Grafana can be installed on the same monitoring server as InfluxDB.

Install using yum:

yum install grafana -y

Next Steps

Now that you have installed Grafana, proceed with Grafana Configuration.
