grafana-agent-operator¶

A Helm chart for Grafana Agent Operator

⚠️ Please create issues relating to this Helm chart in the Agent repo.

Source Code¶

https://github.com/grafana/agent/tree/v0.34.1/pkg/operator

Note that this chart does not provision custom resources like GrafanaAgent and MetricsInstance (formerly PrometheusInstance) or any *Monitor resources.

To learn how to deploy these resources, please see Grafana's Agent Operator getting started guide.

CRDs¶

The CRDs are synced into this chart manually (for now) from the Grafana Agent GitHub repo. To learn more about how Helm manages CRDs, please see Custom Resource Definitions from the Helm docs.

Get Repo Info¶

helm repo add grafana https://helm-charts.itboon.top/grafana
helm repo update

See helm repo for command documentation.

Installing the Chart¶

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

helm install my-release grafana/grafana-agent-operator

Uninstalling the Chart¶

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Upgrading an existing Release to a new major version¶

A major chart version change (like v1.2.3 -> v2.0.0) indicates that there is an incompatible breaking change needing manual actions. Until this chart's version reaches v1.0, there are no promises of backwards compatibility.
