核心概念

1. 数据源 (Data Sources)

数据源是Grafana连接外部数据的桥梁，每个数据源都有特定的查询语言和配置选项。

2. 仪表板 (Dashboards)

仪表板是面板的集合，用于展示相关的监控数据和可视化图表。

3. 面板 (Panels)

面板是仪表板的基本构建块，每个面板显示一个特定的可视化图表。

4. 查询 (Queries)

查询定义了如何从数据源获取数据，不同的数据源有不同的查询语法。

5. 变量 (Variables)

变量允许创建动态和交互式的仪表板，用户可以通过下拉菜单等方式改变显示的数据。

6. 告警 (Alerts)

告警系统监控数据并在满足特定条件时发送通知。

安装Grafana

系统要求

最低要求： - 内存: 255MB - CPU: 1核心 - 磁盘: 1GB - 网络: HTTP/HTTPS访问

推荐配置： - 内存: 512MB+ - CPU: 2核心+ - 磁盘: 10GB+ - 操作系统: Linux, Windows, macOS

安装方式

1. 使用包管理器安装 (推荐)

Ubuntu/Debian:

# 添加Grafana APT仓库
sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common
wget -q -O - https://packages.grafana.com/gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://packages.grafana.com/oss/deb stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grafana.list

# 更新包列表并安装
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grafana

# 启动服务
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start grafana-server
sudo systemctl enable grafana-server

# 检查服务状态
sudo systemctl status grafana-server

CentOS/RHEL:

# 添加Grafana YUM仓库
sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/grafana.repo <<EOF

EOF

# 安装Grafana
sudo yum install grafana

# 启动服务
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start grafana-server
sudo systemctl enable grafana-server

macOS (使用Homebrew):

# 安装Grafana
brew install grafana

# 启动服务
brew services start grafana

# 或者手动启动
grafana-server --config=/usr/local/etc/grafana/grafana.ini --homepath /usr/local/share/grafana

2. Docker安装

基本Docker运行:

# 运行Grafana容器
docker run -d \
  --name=grafana \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  grafana/grafana:latest

# 使用持久化存储
docker run -d \
  --name=grafana \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  -v grafana-storage:/var/lib/grafana \
  grafana/grafana:latest

Docker Compose配置:

# docker-compose.yml
version: '3.8'

services:
  grafana:
    image: grafana/grafana:latest
    container_name: grafana
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    environment:
      - GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER=admin
      - GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin123
      - GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS=grafana-clock-panel,grafana-simple-json-datasource
    volumes:
      - grafana-data:/var/lib/grafana
      - ./grafana/provisioning:/etc/grafana/provisioning
      - ./grafana/grafana.ini:/etc/grafana/grafana.ini
    networks:
      - monitoring

volumes:
  grafana-data:

networks:
  monitoring:
    driver: bridge

3. 二进制文件安装

# 下载最新版本
wget https://dl.grafana.com/oss/release/grafana-10.2.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz

# 解压
tar -zxvf grafana-10.2.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz

# 移动到安装目录
sudo mv grafana-10.2.0 /opt/grafana

# 创建用户和组
sudo useradd --system --shell /bin/false grafana

# 设置权限
sudo chown -R grafana:grafana /opt/grafana

# 创建systemd服务文件
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/grafana-server.service <<EOF

export GF_DATABASE_TYPE=mysql
export GF_DATABASE_HOST=mysql:3306
export GF_DATABASE_NAME=grafana
export GF_DATABASE_USER=grafana
export GF_DATABASE_PASSWORD=password

# 设置插件
export GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS=grafana-clock-panel,grafana-simple-json-datasource

# 启动Grafana
grafana-server

首次访问和设置

1. 访问Web界面

安装完成后，打开浏览器访问： - URL: http://localhost:3000 - 默认用户名: admin - 默认密码: admin

2. 修改默认密码

首次登录时，系统会要求修改默认密码。建议设置强密码： - 至少8个字符 - 包含大小写字母、数字和特殊字符 - 避免使用常见密码

3. 基本设置向导

# 首次设置检查清单

    def __init__(self):
        self.setup_steps = [
            {

验证安装

1. 检查服务状态

# 检查服务状态
sudo systemctl status grafana-server

# 检查端口监听
sudo netstat -tlnp | grep :3000
# 或者
sudo ss -tlnp | grep :3000

# 检查进程
ps aux | grep grafana

2. 检查日志

# 查看系统日志
sudo journalctl -u grafana-server -f

# 查看Grafana日志文件
sudo tail -f /var/log/grafana/grafana.log

# 检查错误日志
sudo grep -i error /var/log/grafana/grafana.log

3. 基本功能测试

# 测试API访问
curl -X GET http://localhost:3000/api/health

# 测试登录API
curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:3000/login \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "user": "admin",
    "password": "admin"
  }'

常见问题和解决方案

1. 端口冲突

问题: 3000端口被占用

解决方案:

# 查找占用端口的进程
sudo lsof -i :3000

# 修改Grafana端口
sudo vim /etc/grafana/grafana.ini
# 修改 http_port = 3001

# 重启服务
sudo systemctl restart grafana-server

2. 权限问题

问题: 无法写入数据目录

解决方案:

# 检查目录权限
ls -la /var/lib/grafana

# 修正权限
sudo chown -R grafana:grafana /var/lib/grafana
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/lib/grafana

3. 数据库连接问题

问题: 无法连接到外部数据库

解决方案:

# 测试数据库连接
mysql -h hostname -u username -p database_name

# 检查防火墙
sudo ufw status
sudo firewall-cmd --list-all

# 检查配置文件
sudo vim /etc/grafana/grafana.ini
# 确认数据库配置正确

4. 内存不足

问题: Grafana运行缓慢或崩溃

解决方案:

# 检查内存使用
free -h
top -p $(pgrep grafana)

# 增加交换空间
sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile

# 优化Grafana配置
# 在grafana.ini中添加:
# [server]
# enable_gzip = true
