Avi Vantage

Supported OS Linux Windows Mac OS

Integration version5.1.0

Overview

This check monitors Avi Vantage through the Datadog Agent.

Setup

Follow the instructions below to install and configure this check for an Agent running on a host. For containerized environments, see the Autodiscovery Integration Templates for guidance on applying these instructions.

Installation

The Avi Vantage check is included in the Datadog Agent package. No additional installation is needed on your server.

Configuration

  1. Edit the avi_vantage.d/conf.yaml file, in the conf.d/ folder at the root of your Agent’s configuration directory to start collecting your avi_vantage performance data. See the sample avi_vantage.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.

  2. Restart the Agent.

Validation

Run the Agent’s status subcommand and look for avi_vantage under the Checks section.
