Monitor Metrics
This guide provides instructions on configuring metrics monitoring for orchestrators that have been activated on the Livepeer network.
- Enable Metrics Monitoring
- Monitor with visualizations
- Prometheus
- Grafana
- Monitor with Docker
You can refer to Prometheus Metrics to check what metrics are exposed.
Enabling Metrics Monitoring
You can enable metrics monitoring with livepeer.exe adding the -monitor flag
and additional parameters:
-monitor: enables metric monitoring-metricsPerStream: groups performance metrics per stream-metricsClientIP: exposes client’s IP in metrics
For Example:
Enable metrics monitoring with a combined orchestrator and transcoder:
livepeer \
-orchestrator \
-transcoder \
-monitor
For the purpose of this example, other flags have been omitted.
Monitoring With Prometheus and Grafana
Follow the instructions in this
monitoring guide
to learn how metrics recorded by livepeer can be:
- Exported to Prometheus, and
- Visualized in Grafana
Monitoring with Docker
You can use this Docker container to easily start monitoring your orchestrator or transcoder. It bundles Prometheus, Grafana, and a few starter Grafana dashboard templates.
