Redpanda integration

Install the infrastructure agent

To use the RedPanda integration, you need to first install the infrastructure agent on the same host. The infrastructure agent monitors the host itself, while the integration you'll install in the next step extends your monitoring with RedPanda-specific data.

Configure integration

1. Create a file named nri-prometheus-config.yml in /etc/newrelic-infra/integrations.d.

2. Add the following snippet to your nri-prometheus-config.yml file to enable the capture of RedPanda data. Be sure to edit the config file with your info:

   integrations:
     - name: nri-prometheus
       config:
         # When standalone is set to false, nri-prometheus requires an infrastructure agent to work and send data. Defaults to true
         standalone: false
   
         # If using the infrastructure agent, emitters have to include infra-sdk
         emitters: infra-sdk
   
         # The name of your cluster. The name of your cluster must be consistent across New Relic products so the infrastructure agent and nri-prometheus can scrape data from the cluster.
         cluster_name: "YOUR_EXPORTER_NAME"
   
         targets:
           - description: Redpanda metrics are captured in the below urls
             urls: ["http://localhost:9644/metrics", "http://localhost:9644/public_metrics"]
         #    tls_config:
         #      ca_file_path: "/etc/etcd/etcd-client-ca.crt"
         #      cert_file_path: "/etc/etcd/etcd-client.crt"
         #      key_file_path: "/etc/etcd/etcd-client.key"
   
         # Specifies whether or not the integration should run in verbose mode. Defaults to false.
         verbose: false
   
         # Specifies whether or not the integration should run in audit mode. Defaults to false.
         # Audit mode logs the uncompressed data sent to New Relic. Use this to log all data sent.
         # It does not include verbose mode. This can lead to a high log volume, use with care.
         audit: false
   
         # The HTTP client timeout when fetching data from endpoints. Defaults to "5s" if it's not set.
         # scrape_timeout: "5s"
   
         # Length in time to distribute the scraping from the endpoints. Default to "30s" if it's not set.
         scrape_duration: "5s"
   
         # Number of worker threads used for scraping targets.
         # For large clusters with many (>400) endpoints, slowly increase until scrape
         # time falls between the desired `scrape_duration`.
         # Increasing this value too much will result in huge memory consumption if too
         # many metrics are being scraped.
         # Default: 4
         # worker_threads: 4
   
         #Specifies whether or not the integration should skip TLS verification. Defaults to false.
         insecure_skip_verify: false
   
       timeout: 10s

Restart the New Relic infrastructure agent

Before you can start using your data, restart your infrastructure agent.

The following command should work for most systems:

$
sudo systemctl restart newrelic-infra.service

Find your data

You can choose our pre-built dashboard template named RedPanda to monitor your Nextcloud server metrics. Follow these steps to use our pre-built dashboard template:

1. From one.newrelic.com, go to the + Integrations & Agents page.

2. Click on Dashboards.

3. In the search bar, type RedPanda.

4. The RedPanda dashboard should appear. Click on it to install it.

   Your Nextcloud dashboard is considered a custom dashboard and can be found in the Dashboards UI. For docs on using and editing dashboards, see our dashboard docs.
