We should be plotting something!

 

 
As part of the presentation at VeeamON 2025 with ​@Geoff Burke, we introduced the new Grafana Dashboard, inspired by ​@jorge.delacruz's work for several Veeam products.

The dashboard supports one or multiple clusters containing one or multiple nodes.

For both the cluster and the nodes, the following details are available:

  • Cluster and Node status
    • Including Update and join/leave status
  • Capacity status
  • CPU & Disk I/O
  • Network graphs (S3 and Internode)
    • Internode graph will be empty if there is only one node in the cluster
  • S3 Service
  • Storage Usage

The following things are required:

  • Grafana
  • InfluxDB 2
  • Git
  • Linux OS

You need to install some software if you are not already running a Grafana dashboard for Veeam. To get things started, follow Jorge's blog post. You could skip the Telegraf parts.

After successfully installing Grafana and InfluxDB 2, you can continue installing the dashboard according to the procedure on the GitHub repository.

If you have any issues, please create an issue on GitHub.

 

Cheers,

That’s pretty slick ​@mkevenaar . Thanks for sharing!


Looking forward to testing this one.  Was waiting for it on top of the Zabbix ones.  😜

Let me know how it turns out for you


Is there any documentation on how to access the OOTBI API?

I am interested in creating an AsBuiltReport for OOTBI 😬

You should be able to get the API information here: https://sOOTBICLUSTER]:8443/swagger 

Also, I thought you stopped working on the AsBuiltReports?

I will once I get it going.  Already have Zabbix and Grafana working.  Grafana does VMware and Veeam so adding one more should not be an issue. 😁

Unfortunately I believe the whole AsBuiltReport project is stalled not only the Veeam reports. 

I have been updating the AsBuiltReport.Veeam.VBR report but I feel that it will be stuck on version 12.x and will not be compatible with the next versions of Veeam VBR.

As for OOTBI I'm considering creating the report using purely PScribo so that it has no relation to the AsBuiltReport module!

In that way the code can reside in the Veeam community repository and can receive contributions without any restrictions.

If it is all the same for you, I would like to host it in the ObjectFirstCommunity GitHub Organization.

I can set you up with that. Feel free to DM me to get started.

 

Why do you think the VBR report will be stuck at V12? Is there anything I can help you with?


Awesome stuff, thanks for sharing! Dashboards looks superb


Looks great, I’ll have to test this out. Thanks!


Got this working after following the directions properly!  LOL 😋🤣

Will give this a test run and see how it goes but looks good so far.  Great work ​@mkevenaar 👍🏼
