VictoriaMetrics/app/vmselect/vmui/dashboards

Setup

1. Create .json config file in a folder dashboards
2. Import your config file into the dashboards/index.js
3. Add filename into the array window.__VMUI_PREDEFINED_DASHBOARDS__

It is possible to define path to the predefined dashboards by setting --vmui.customDashboardsPath.

1. Single Version If you use single version of the VictoriaMetrics this flag should be provided for you execution file.

./victoria-metrics  --vmui.customDashboardsPath=/path/to/your/dashboards

2. Cluster Version If you use cluster version this flag should be defined for each vmselect component.

./vmselect -storageNode=:8418 --vmui.customDashboardsPath=/path/to/your/dashboards

At that moment all predefined dashboards files show be near each vmselect. For example if you have 3 vmselect instances you should create 3 copy of your predefined dashboards.
