The Harvest2 team is pleased to announce the release of version 21.08.
With this release two of the most outstanding new features are; the addition of seven new dashboards; and a native to Harvest2 Docker deployment method. You can read about all the steps and new features at https://github.com/NetApp/harvest,.
Here are some of the highlights and how they work.
New Features:
- Make it easy to install Grafana, Prometheus, and Harvest with Docker Compose and auto-provisioned dashboards.
- Full Docker setup included in Harvest download
- Requires Docker 20.10.0 or higher
- Download the latest version of [Harvest](https://github.com/NetApp/harvest#installation), then untar and cd into the harvest directory
- Create a `harvest.yml` file with your cluster details.
- Below is an example with annotated comments. You can modify as needed for your environment.
This config is using the Prometheus exporter [port_range](https://github.com/NetApp/harvest/blob/main/cmd/exporters/prometheus/README.md#parameters) feature so you don't have to manage the Prometheus exporter port mappings for each poller.
