Installing on Kubernetes¶

Prerequisites

Requires Linux 2.6.23 or higher, supports installation on both ARM and x86 architectures.

Choose the DataWay Gateway Address¶

DataWay is the data gateway for Guance. All data collected by the collector and reported to Guance must pass through the DataWay gateway.

wget https://static.guance.com/datakit/datakit.yaml

- name: ENV_DATAWAY
  value: https://openway.guance.com?token=tkn_7f5********fda8681

- name: ENV_DEFAULT_ENABLED_INPUTS
  value: cpu,disk,diskio,mem,swap,system,hostobject,net,host_processes,container

To enable more collectors, simply append them to the configuration above. Of course, you can also remove certain collectors from this list.

Collector Name	Description
`cpu`	Collects host CPU usage
`disk`	Collects disk usage
`diskio`	Collects host disk IO
`mem`	Collects host memory usage
`swap`	Collects Swap memory usage
`system`	Collects host operating system load
`net`	Collects host network traffic
`host_processes`	Collects a list of resident processes (alive for more than 10min) on the host
`hostobject`	Collects basic host information (e.g., OS info, hardware info)
`container`	Collects possible container objects and container logs on the host

In DaemonSet mode, DataKit also supports configuration via multiple environment variables.

View more environment variables.

kubectl apply -f datakit.yaml

After installation, the system will automatically create a DaemonSet deployment for DataKit.

kubectl get pod -n datakit
