README

Datadog Agent release for BOSH

• For all stemcells (Python source implementation)
• Automatically defines tags based on deployments, names and jobs
• Process, network, ntp and disk integrations by default
• Monit processes are added automatically to process integration
• You can define additional integrations

Configuration

Upload the release to Bosh director

Create a runtime-config.yaml file:

ases:
me: datadog-agent
rsion: 1

ns:
me: dd-agent
bs:
name: dd-agent
release: datadog-agent
operties:
dd:
  use_dogstatsd: yes
  api_key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
  tags: ["pe", "bosh", "bosh:bosh-exp"]

:
ner: pe
ail: platform-engineering@springernature.com

Upload runtime-config to Bosh Director: bosh update runtime-config runtime-config.yaml

Re-deploy the deployments to automatically add the agent.

You can also add the release to the manifest and deploy it

Development

After cloning this repository, run:

submodule init
submodule update

to update the gohai submodule. Gohai is a binary (golang) program used by Datadog Agent to collect basic information from the server. There is a script bosh_prepare which also runs the git submouldes commands and downloads all sources to the blobs directory:

sh_prepare

It will get all sources specified in the packages/*/spec files (commented out) for local development, then you can create the release (final) with:

sh_final_release

which will upload the tarball to github and make the new blobs public available in the S3 bucket

Note

bosh_prepare ensures that gohai git submodule is populated in src/gohai. In order to avoid including a git package -only needed because of go get command to download the dependencies- the script runs go get locally to get all dependencies, so it is assuming you have go installed. After those dependencies were downloaded, the binary package can be compiled, but a new folder src/gohai/src appears, because of that bosh will complain about untracked git changes, but there are two workarounds:

• use bosh create release --force
• add to the .gitmodules file a config parameter for ignoring dirty state of the submodule: ignore = dirty

Here, the second option is used.
