Repository with configuration files required for Containers Health Monitor Production Deployment using Docker Swarm.

• Simplified and automated startup through scripts.

1. Linux (Ubuntu 16.04+ recommended)
2. Docker Engine 18.06.0+
   • Follow all the steps present in the official documentation.
3. Docker Compose 1.22.0+
   • Follow all the steps present in the official documentation.
4. Make sure that Swarm is enabled by typing docker system info, and looking for a message Swarm: active (you might have to scroll up a little).
   • If Swarm isn’t running, simply type docker swarm init at a shell prompt to set it up.

To ensure flexibility, the health monitor services receive some parameters through environment variables, e.g. SMTP configurations, credentials (username and password), etc.

First, create the configuration file based on the .env.monitor.example file:

$ cp .env.monitor.example .env.monitor

After making the settings, execute the command to assign the values defined in the environment variables that are in the settings file:

$ set -a && source .env.monitor && set +a

Variables to define the administrator user's credentials the first time the Grafana is instantiated.

$ docker stack deploy -c docker-monitor-stack.yml <stack_name>

$ docker stack rm <stack_name>
