Nutanix Grafana Setup (legacy API)
Base Server Setup
Install the latest Ubuntu live: 25.04-live-server-amd64.iso
Install just the server minimum and create a user (i.e. nutanix)
- Copy this install script to the home directory of the user created during install. (i.e. /home/nutanix)
- Or you can use wget from the home directory: wget http://cl-cloud9.com/install.tar.gz – -no-check-certificate
- tar -xvzf install.tar.gz
- sudo su –
- cd /home/nutanix (or whatever home directory for the user you created)
- ./install.sh
Once install is completed, change directory to /usr/local/nutanix-exporter
** Do not skip running ‘docker login‘ from the command prompt before running the add-cluster.sh script for the first time**
- You can create a Docker login free if you don’t already have one
- Docker login DOES NOT need to be ran everytime.
- run ./add-cluster.sh
- Follow the command prompt and run add-cluster.sh for each additional Prism Central or Prism Element
