This plugin makes queries to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure(OCI) Monitoring Service to fetch metrics for your OCI resources or your custom metrics in OCI. And then displays them on Grafana.
If you are running Grafana on a machine instance in Oracle Cloud, use the Instance Principal with a configured Dynamic Group and policy to allow you to read metrics and compartments.
If you are running Grafana anywhere else you'll need to get the necessary provider and resource settings, as described in this section Getting OCI Configuration values
Latest plugin version 5.X.X (available on Grafana Marketplace) is compatible with Grafana 10.
Breaking changes:
- In case you are migrating from a previous version (3.x.x or below) of the OCI Metrics Grafana Plugin and are not using Instance Principals (Environment not set as OCI instance), please refer to the Migration Instructions for Grafana OCI Metrics Data Source Settings (User Principals and Single Tenancy mode only) because you will have to reconfigure the plugin setup
- In case you are migrating from a previous version (4.x.x or below) of the OCI Metrics Grafana Plugin to version 5.x.x and your dashboard is using dimensions in its selectors or as its template variables, please refer to this section to modify your dashboard accordingly to the new dimensions selector.
