Enabling the Grafana Service on a Node

After the Grafana service is enabled, Filebeat and Metricbeat processes start to obtain node performance data and forward the data to LogStash for formatting. The processed data is stored in the database for Grafana to display. Filebeat and Metricbeat are integrated into the product package. After the system is deployed, Filebeat and Metricbeat are also deployed. By default, Filebeat and Metricbeat are not started.

Prerequisites
