Monitor a MinIO Server with Grafana

Grafana allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your metrics no matter where they are stored.

Prerequisites

Grafana dashboards use metrics version 2

The MinIO Grafana dashboards use metrics version 2. For more about metrics API versions, see Metrics and alerts.

Version 3 metrics require creating your own dashboard. For more information about dashboards, see the Grafana documentation.

MinIO Grafana Dashboard

MinIO provides several official Grafana Dashboards you can download from the Grafana Dashboard portal.

  1. MinIO Server metrics

  2. MinIO Bucket metrics

  3. MinIO Replication metrics

To track changes to the Grafana dashboard, introspect the JSON files for the server or bucket dashboards in the MinIO Server GitHub repository.

MinIO provides a Grafana Dashboard for MinIO Server metrics. For specifics on the dashboard’s configuration, see the JSON file on GitHub.

For MinIO Deployments running with Server-Side Encryption (SSE-KMS or SSE-S3), the dashboard includes metrics for the KMS. These metrics include status, request error rates, and request success rates.
