Hello,

I'm trying to setup InfluxDB server to store Metric data from Proxmox (v6.1-3) servers, but I'm not getting VM data (nics/cpu etc).
  • I have created an influxDB server that runs on UDP Port 8089
  • I have created status.cfg with my influxdb server/port.
  • I have connected to InfluxDB server and checked the following:
Code:
[root@localhost ~]# influx -precision rfc3339
Connected to http://localhost:8086 version 1.8.3
InfluxDB shell version: 1.8.3
> use proxmox
Using database proxmox

system,host=local-zfs,nodename=zeus,object=storages,type=zfspool
> show measurements
name: measurements

I'm not able to see cpu/nic data from all the available VM of the node.
I checked the Firewall, connection between proxmox and influxDB server. Everything looks ok

Any suggestion what else to check ?

Thank you in advance.
 
I suggest upgrading to the current PVE version, there have been quite a lot of improvements to how the metrics are sent since 6.1
