Single Machine​

Alternatively, you can install the Prometheus VMWare vCenter exporter on a single machine.

Prerequisite(s):

  • You have the [StackGen Agent running on the machine](../../Collecting Telemetry/Install the OpsVerse Agent#dszlx).

Run this command to install the VMWare Prometheus exporter as a systemd unit:

# for amd64
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpsVerseIO/installers/main/prometheus-exporters/install-exporter-amd64.sh | sudo bash -s -- -e vmware 

# for arm64
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpsVerseIO/installers/main/prometheus-exporters/install-exporter-arm64.sh | sudo bash -s -- -e vmware
  • After you install, update the vSphere host and credentials info at /etc/opsverse/exporters/vmware/config.yaml (you may further tweak with any available options, and then restart the service:
  • The agent will begin scraping the metrics automatically; the script will drop the scrape target into /etc/opsverse/targets/, so the agent will begin automatically scraping
  • Dashboards: Tentatively, you may import from here
