Tanzu Observability by WaveFront

You'll need a Wavefront url and API_KEY to integrate the clusters with Wavefront.

The scripts to prepare the YAML to deploy TO depend on a parameters to be set. Ensure the following are set in params.yaml:

wavefront:
  # Your API Key
  api-key: foo-bar-foo
  # References to your wavefront instance
  url: https://surf.wavefront.com
  # Prefix to add to all your clusters in wavefront
  cluster-name-prefix: dpfeffer

Configuration through Tanzu Mission Control (TMC)

TMC allows you to directly integrate with Tanzu Observability for clusters under management. This is a new feature for TMC and is only available through the UI. CLI integration is targeted for Q2 2021. As such, we don't have have a scripted option.

  1. Log-in to TMC
  2. Select your cluster from the cluster list
  3. Choose Actions->Tanzu Observability by Wavefront->Add...
  4. Add dialog. Either select existing TO credential from drop down or setup a new credential. To setup a new credentrial; for Tanzu Observability URL enter the result of echo $(yq r $PARAMS_YAML wavefront.url). For Tanzu Observability API token enter the result of echo $(yq r $PARAMS_YAML wavefront.api-key) and then click CONFIRM button.
  5. It should take about 2 minutes to complete enablement of the cluster, and then a little more to see the data flowing in Tanzu Observability.

Validation

  1. You have a new namespace created: tanzu-observability-saas
kubectl get all -n tanzu-observability-saas
  1. Test it out. Choose Actions->Tanzu Observability by Wavefront->Open Tanzu Observability by Wavefront. A new browser tab will open directly on the Kubernetes Cluster Dashboard. Your cluster will be named as named $CLUSTER_NAME.attached.attached
