Tips

When importing Grafana MySQL dashboard json, you may be required to replace mysql_up with mysql_exporter_scrapes_total
Use -web.listed-address to change exporter port:

/opt/prometheus_exporters/mysqld_exporter -config.my-cnf="/opt/prometheus_exporters/.my.cnf" -web.listen-address="10.20.30.40:10101"

Open exporter ports

sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --permanent --add-port=10100/tcp
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=10100/tcp

Find used ports

sudo sh -c "netstat -anp | grep 10100"

kill process

sudo kill -15 <pid>
