Basically a cron job runs gotracer-prometheus every 2 minutes. The output is placed in /opt/prometheus/textfile_collector (TODO change /opt to /var for output data).
Any Prometheus installation accessing the node exporter will have data like example at /opt/prometheus//textfile_collector/epsolar.prom
Assumes Debian/Ubuntu linus installation... Copy files from install folder into the root file system of the target installation.
- Requires binary for node_exporter to be put in /opt/prometheus/node_exporter directory.
- Build src/gotracer-prometheus.go and copy binary to /usr/local/bin of target installation.
- Need to run systemd commands to register node_exporter as service
TODO - add details on downloading node_exporter and building gotracer-prometheus
