Package details

  • Installs binary to /usr/sbin/grafana-server
  • Init.d script to /etc/init.d/grafana-server
  • Default file (environment vars) to /etc/sysconfig/grafana-server
  • Configuration file to /etc/grafana/grafana.ini
  • Systemd service (if systemd is available) name grafana-server.service
  • The default configuration specifies log file at /var/log/grafana/grafana.log
  • The default configuration specifies sqlite3 db at /var/lib/grafana/grafana.db

Start the server (init.d service)

  • Start grafana by sudo service grafana-server start
  • This will start the grafana-server process as the grafana user (created during package install)
  • Default http port is 3000, and default user is admin/admin
  • To configure grafana server to start at boot time: sudo /sbin/chkconfig --add grafana-server

Start the server (via systemd)

$ systemctl daemon-reload
$ systemctl start grafana-server
$ systemctl status grafana-server

Enable the systemd service (so grafana starts at boot)

sudo systemctl enable grafana-server.service

Environment file

The systemd service file and init.d script both use the file located at /etc/sysconfig/grafana-server for environment variables used when starting the backend. Here you can override log directory, data directory and other variables.

Logging

By default grafana will log to /var/log/grafana

Database

The default configuration specifies a sqlite3 database located at /var/lib/grafana/grafana.db. Please backup this database before upgrades. You can also use mysql or postgres as the Grafana database.

Configuration

The configuration file is located at /etc/grafana/grafana.ini. Go the Configuration page for details on all those options.
