Consul Monitoring

Data flow: Consul -> Prometheus -> Grafana.

In each Consul agent Prometheus config should be present as described here https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options.html#telemetry-prometheus_retention_time.

Job collector should be added in Prometheus config like:

scrape_configs:

• job_name: 'consul'
  metrics_path: /v1/agent/metrics
  params:
  format: ['prometheus']
  static_configs:
  • targets:
    • 'node1_host:8500'
    • 'node2_host:8500'
