sensu multiple instances on same server

  • 772

Is it possible to run multiple instances of the sensu server on the same box? The intention is to have a "development" monitoring server to split the clients away from the production servers

    yes you can as long as they all point to different places.. Like your config for production might look like

    {
  "rabbitmq": {
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 5672,
    "vhost": "/sensu",
    "user": "sensu",
    "password": "password"
  },
  "redis": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": 6379
  },
  "api": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "bind": "0.0.0.0",
    "port": 4567
  }
}

    And for development

    {
  "rabbitmq": {
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 5672,
    "vhost": "/sensu-dev",
    "user": "sensu-dev",
    "password": "password"
  },
  "redis": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": 6380
  },
  "api": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "bind": "0.0.0.0",
    "port": 4568
  }
}

    Pretty much you can run a single rabbit server with 2 vhosts and 2 user accounts. You'd need 2 redis servers running and 2 api servers.
