Melroy's Status Dashboard

Dashboard with showing the server uptime as well as your own defined services via the exec plugin of Telegraf (I’m using pgrep Linux command to collect data). Pgrep command is used to obtain information about the process and stored into the table called nr_processes.

You will need to install Telegraf & InfluxDB.

Notice the additional required plugin, called flant-statusmap-panel (thank you)

Demo: I’m actually using this dashboard as my public dashboard. I’m using a dedicated ‘public’ organization within my Grafana server.

Telegraf config

Add the following Telegraf configuration to your /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf file:
