4# Enabling support for OpenTSDB
5
6This module sends all metrics to OpenTSDB server. You need something
7like Grafana for graphing.
8
9# Requirements
10
11- OpenTSDB
12- Grafana
13
14# What you don't get
15
16 Pretty graphs, this is why at present you need Grafana. You need to
17 build your own graphs within Grafana.
18
19RRD will continue to function normally so LibreNMS itself should
20continue to function normally.
21
22You can add the following to `config.php`.
23
24# Configuration
25
26```php
27// OpenTSDB default configuration
28$config['opentsdb']['enable'] = true;
29$config['opentsdb']['host'] = '127.0.0.1';  // your OpenTSDB server
30$config['opentsdb']['port'] = 4242;
31```
32
33The same data than the one stored within rrd will be sent to OpenTSDB
34and recorded. You can then create graphs within Grafana to display the
35information you need.
