To ensure that everything went correctly, you can head over to If you have access to Prometheus’s web console, it means that everything went just fine.

Prometheus should start when launching the final prometheus command. static_configs: - targets: Įxit vi, and finally run the prometheus executable in the folder. In the ‘scrape_configs’ section, add an entry to the targets property under the static_configs section. global: scrape_interval: 1s # Set the scrape interval to every 1 second. In the ‘global’ section, modify the ‘scrape_interval’ property down to one second. Targets (Pushgateway in our case) need to be configured via Prometheus’s configuration file. Now that you have the archive, extract it, and navigate into the main folder: > tar xvzf prometheus-2.9.2. > cd prometheus-2.9.2.linux-amd64/Īs stated before, Prometheus scraps ‘targets’ periodically to gather metrics from them. b - Installing PrometheusĪs described in the ‘Getting Started’ section of Prometheus’s website, head over to and run a simple wget command in order to get the Prometheus archive for your OS. source='main.go:108'įrom there, Pushgateway is listening to incoming metrics on port 9091. pushgateway &Īs a result, your Pushgateway should start as background process./pushgateway & 22806 INFO Starting pushgateway (version=0.8.0, branch=HEAD, revision=d90bf3239c5ca08d72ccc9e2e2ff3a62b99a122e) source='main.go:65'INFO Build context (go=go1.11.8, date=20190413-11:29:19) source='main.go:66'INFO Listening on :9091. Now that you have the archive, extract it, and run the executable available in the pushgateway folder. In order to install Pushgateway, run a simple wget command to get the latest binaries available. Now that you have a better idea of what’s going on in our application, let’s install the different tools needed.
