• bin/check-graylog-streams.rb
• bin/check-graylog2-alive.rb
• bin/metrics-graylog.rb

Installation and Setup

• If you want a limited access user for monitoring purposes please see the Graylog FAQ
  • A limited user must also have the "streams:read" permission on their role in order to use the check-graylog-streams.rb check
• Users may further obfuscate their credentials by creating an Access Token to use instead of their normal login credentials.
  • Note that only an admin may create a token by default. If you want to have a dedicated monitoring user with an access token you will need to create them as a Admin user, create the token, then change the user to the monitoring specific role. You can change the default behavior by granting users:tokencreate, users:tokenlist, and users:tokenremove to a role and adding that role to the monitoring user.
