Installing cAdvisor on OpenBSD

This tutorial will walk you through the process of installing cAdvisor on OpenBSD. cAdvisor is a popular open-source container monitoring tool that provides detailed information about containers running on the system.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure that you have the following pre-requisites installed on your OpenBSD system:

Installation

To install cAdvisor on OpenBSD, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the cAdvisor git repository using the following command:

    git clone https://github.com/google/cadvisor.git
    
  2. Change into the cAdvisor directory using the following command:

    cd cadvisor
    
  3. Build the cAdvisor Docker image using the following command:

    docker build --no-cache --tag=cadvisor .
    
  4. Run the cAdvisor Docker container using the following command:

    docker run \
     --publish=8080:8080 \
     --volume=/:/rootfs:ro \
     --volume=/var/run:/var/run:rw \
     --volume=/sys:/sys:ro \
     --volume=/var/lib/docker/:/var/lib/docker:ro \
     --detach=true \
     --name=cadvisor \
     cadvisor
    

    This command will start the cAdvisor container with the following parameters:

    • --publish=8080:8080: Maps port 8080 from the container to port 8080 on your host machine.
    • --volume=/:/rootfs:ro: Mounts the root file system of the host machine as read-only into the container.
    • --volume=/var/run:/var/run:rw: Mounts the /var/run directory of the host machine as read-write into the container.
    • --volume=/sys:/sys:ro: Mounts the sys directory of the host machine as read-only into the container.
    • --volume=/var/lib/docker/:/var/lib/docker:ro: Mounts the var/lib/docker directory of the host machine as read-only into the container.
    • --detach=true: Runs the container in the background.
    • --name=cadvisor: Names the container as cadvisor.
  5. Verify that cAdvisor is running by accessing http://localhost:8080 in your web browser. You should see the cAdvisor user interface.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed cAdvisor on your OpenBSD machine.

If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!

Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
