Setup Datadog

[josecelano]

I've set up the Datadog agent on the live demo server.

I was wondering if I could get stats like this: https://www.gbitt.info/ just by reading the tracker logs.

Tracker container logs are like this:

In the end, it was very easy. I only needed to install the Datalog agent and add support for docker and I was able to get a graph with the UDP announce requests per second:

Commands

Some datadog commands:

• Start: sudo systemctl stop datadog-agent
• Stop: sudo systemctl start datadog-agent
• Add dd-agent to the docker group to enable the docker support, run: sudo usermod -a -G docker dd-agent
