ArtifactoryDataDog

Overview

Artifactory is a binary repository manager. Basically it's an equivalent to using something like git, except for built artifacts.

If that sentence doesn't mean anything to you, you can stop reading.

I recently had to figure out how to set up monitoring of Artifactory. The available documentation isn't very good, so here are my notes on how to get everything set up.

JMX

Artifactory is a Tomcat web app and it exposes monitoring information via Java Management Extensions (JMX). The first step is to enable jmx for your artifactory instance.

Assuming you have artifactory installed in /data/artifactory-pro.

add to artifactory java startup options in /etc/opt/jfrog/artifactory/default:

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote \
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=7199 \
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=true \
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false \
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.password.file=/data/artifactory-pro/jmxpass"

create file /data/artifactory-pro/jmxpass:

monitorRole readonly

create datadog jmx config file /etc/dd-agent/conf.d/jmx.yaml:

Restart and Check Status

restart artifactory and datadog

check /var/log/datadog/*.log files

sud dd-agent configcheck

sudo dd-agent jmx list_matching_attributes

ToDo

Document nginx monitoring config

Document how to pick monitoring variables in datadog
