Post Installation Tasks

After you install the Paragon Automation cluster, you can use Paragon Shell to perform the following additional optional tasks:

Configure Monitoring

Configure monitoring in Paragon Automation to collect metrics from different types of sources (such as host metrics, kube-state-metric, syslogs and so on) and forward the collected data to designated sinks, or destinations (such as Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, and so on).

  1. Log in to the node from which you deployed the Paragon Automation cluster.
  2. Type configure to enter configuration mode.
  3. Configure the sources and sinks. Use the following commands.

    Where id is the required source or sink ID. For a list of all available sink-options and source-options, see set paragon monitoring.

  4. Type commit and-quit to commit the configuration and exit configuration mode.
  5. Regenerate the configuration files.
  6. Deploy the monitoring updates.

Update Victoria Metrics

Update the Victoria Metrics cluster configuration parameters. Victoria-metrics is a time series database. Different microservices populate the database and query data using the APIs provided by Victoria metrics.

  1. Log in to the node from which you deployed the Paragon Automation cluster.
  2. Type configure to enter configuration mode.
  3. Update the Victoria Metrics parameters. Use the following commands.

    For more information on vm-cluster-replication-factor, vm-cluster-retention-period, and vm-cluster-storage-instances, see set paragon cluster insights victoria-metrics.
