Amazon RDS

Single Machine
You can install the RDS exporter on a single machine.
The RDS exporter has two types of metrics: basic and advanced. To be able to use advanced metrics, make sure to set the Enable Enhanced Monitoring option in the settings of your Amazon RDS DB instance. You can do this by clicking on Modify > Additional configuration > Enhanced Monitoring.
﻿
After enabling Enhanced Monitoring, please restart you RDS DB instance.
﻿
Prerequisite(s):
You have the OpsVerse Agent running on the machine﻿
You have enabled Enhanced Monitoring for your Amazon RDS
Run this command to install the RDS exporter as a systemd unit:
Shell
# For amd64
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpsVerseIO/installers/main/prometheus-exporters/install-exporter-amd64.sh | sudo bash -s -- -e rds 

# For arm64
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpsVerseIO/installers/main/prometheus-exporters/install-exporter-arm64.sh | sudo bash -s -- -e rds 
# For amd64
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpsVerseIO/installers/main/prometheus-exporters/install-exporter-amd64.sh | sudo bash -s -- -e rds 

# For arm64
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpsVerseIO/installers/main/prometheus-exporters/install-exporter-arm64.sh | sudo bash -s -- -e rds 
﻿
First you need to update OpsVerse agent-config.yaml file. Go to /etc/opsverse/agent-config.yaml and add the below jobs in the scrape_configs section of the file.
Text
extraScrapeConfigs:
  - job_name: rds-basic
    scrape_interval: 60s
    scrape_timeout: 55s
    metrics_path: /basic
    honor_labels: true
    static_configs:
    - targets:
        - 127.0.0.1:9042

  - job_name: rds-enhanced
    scrape_interval: 10s
    scrape_timeout: 9s
    metrics_path: /enhanced
    honor_labels: true
    static_configs:
    - targets:
        - 127.0.0.1:9042
extraScrapeConfigs:
  - job_name: rds-basic
    scrape_interval: 60s
    scrape_timeout: 55s
    metrics_path: /basic
    honor_labels: true
    static_configs:
    - targets:
        - 127.0.0.1:9042

  - job_name: rds-enhanced
    scrape_interval: 10s
    scrape_timeout: 9s
    metrics_path: /enhanced
    honor_labels: true
    static_configs:
    - targets:
        - 127.0.0.1:9042
﻿
Next, you need to edit the rds-config.yaml file. Go to /etc/opsverse/exporters/rds/config.yaml and add the necessary configurations.
YAML
instances:
  - region: <region>
    instance: <instance_name>
    aws_access_key: <aws_access_key>
    aws_secret_key: <aws_secret_key>
    disable_basic_metrics: false
    disable_enhanced_metrics: false
instances:
  - region: <region>
    instance: <instance_name>
    aws_access_key: <aws_access_key>
    aws_secret_key: <aws_secret_key>
    disable_basic_metrics: false
    disable_enhanced_metrics: false
﻿
Restart the OpsVerse agent and the rds-exporter.
Shell
sudo systemctl restart prom-rds-exporter opsverse-agent
sudo systemctl restart prom-rds-exporter opsverse-agent
﻿
The agent will begin scraping the metrics automatically; the script will drop the scrape target into /etc/opsverse/targets/, so the agent will begin automatically scraping.
