The instructions to modify the json files are missing. (Using find and sed to 
change all instances of v4_4_ to v4_3_ before importing them into Grafana)

This is from an Oracle Blog on the doing this with OLVM 4.3 (which is basically 
a repackaged oVirt 4.3)

The oVirt version I'm using is 4.3, and I get an error when I import JSON.
pq: relation"v4_4_latest_configuration_datacenters" does not exist.

Hi Marko,

I've tested this myself as I like playing with various Grafana use-cases and 
following steps allow you to set up Grafana Monitoring for your oVirt 4.3 
environment and re-use all Grafana Dashboards from latest oVirt 4.4 on a 
previous release.

1. Allowing Grafana to connect to oVirt DWH database (Data Warehouse)

Login to the oVirt engine 4.3 and create a user "grafana" with password 
"grafana" that will get a read-only access to the ovirt_engine_history database 
and will be able to use public schema

# su - postgres -c 'scl enable rh-postgresql10 bash'
# psql -U postgres -c "CREATE ROLE grafana WITH LOGIN ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 
'grafana';" -d ovirt_engine_history
# psql -U postgres -c "GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE ovirt_engine_history TO 
grafana;"
# psql -U postgres -c "GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA public TO grafana;" 
ovirt_engine_history

Generate the rest of the permissions that will be granted to the newly created 
user and save them to a file:

# psql -U postgres -c "SELECT 'GRANT SELECT ON ' || relname || ' TO grafana;' 
FROM pg_class JOIN pg_namespace ON pg_namespace.oid = pg_class.relnamespace 
WHERE nspname = 'public' AND relkind IN ('r', 'v');" --pset=tuples_only=on  
ovirt_engine_history > grant.sql

Use the file you created in the previous step to grant permissions to the newly 
created user:
# psql -U postgres -f grant.sql ovirt_engine_history

Remove the file you used to grant permissions:
# rm grant.sql

Exit the postgres user shell by pressing Ctrl+d

Add the following lines for the newly created user to 
/var/opt/rh/rh-postgresql10/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf preceding the line 
beginning local all all

host    ovirt_engine_history grafana 0.0.0.0/0               md5
host    ovirt_engine_history grafana ::0/0                   md5

Reload postgres service
# systemctl reload rh-postgresql10-postgresql

2. Installing Grafana

You can install Grafana directly on the oVirt Engine machine (this is how it's 
done in oVirt 4.4) or on a separate machine. Following steps shows how you can 
install Grafana on a Oracle Linux 7 server. Note: Oracle provides Grafana in 
the OLCNE yum repository - you only need to install the repository definition 
package to pickup Grafana and it's dependencies.

# yum install oraclelinux-release-el7
# yum install oracle-olcne-release-el7
# yum-config-manager --enable ol7_optional_latest ol7_olcne11
# yum install grafana
# systemctl enable --now grafana-server

3. Adding oVirt DWH database as Data Source in Grafana

Login to Grafana (default port 3000) and navigate to Configuration -> 
DataSources and click on Add Data Source button.

Select PostgreSQL source and use the following settings (adjust the Host IP 
address to match your oVirt Engine IP but do not change the Name):
Name: oVirt DWH
Host: your-engine-ip-address:5432
user: grafana
pass: grafana
SSL mode: disable

4. Importing Dashboards from oVirt 4.4

Download Grafana Dashboards from oVirt 4.4 repository: 
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-dwh/tree/master/packaging/conf/grafana-dashboards

You can now import them in Grafana by navigating to Create -> Import and 
clicking on Upload .json file or by simply pasting JSON content.

I've tested this on my OLVM/oVirt 4.3 and works perfectly well.

Have fun!

Dear oVirt,

We are currently running oVirt 4.3 and upgrade/migration to 4.4 won’t be 
possible for few more months.

I am looking into guidelines, how to, for setting up Grafana using 
DataWarehouse as data source.

Did anyone already did this, and would be willing to share the steps?

AFAIU this is definitely not tested/recommended/supported, but the current 
(4.4) dashboards use only 4.3 dwh compatibility views. So in theory, 4.4 
grafana setup can work against your 4.3 engine/dwh without problems. So you can 
try something like:

1. Install el8 on some machine
2. Install ovirt-release (4.4!)
3. Install ovirt-engine-dwh-grafana-integration-setup. I *think*, didn't try, 
that it would carry with it all the dependencies it needs.
4. Run engine-setup. When prompted, only accept "Configure grafana?", and reply 
"No" to everything else
5. Follow the other prompts as applicable

This should be enough.

Not sure about the commands to add SSO on the engine machine. Perhaps better 
verify this first against a test engine (can be on another el7/ovirt4.3 VM with 
no hosts).

But, repeating: this isn't recommended.

Did you consider upgrading only your engine, and keep your hosts 4.3 until you 
can upgrade them later?

Best regards,
--
Didi
