I’m doing this on a CentOS minimal install, and all the Graphite “stuff” is going in the default locations. I hear you “don’t need as much space as you think”, but that you do want to use fast disks (read “SSDs”).
Graphite install steps:
2 Keys:
1. Install EPEL
2. install pip via yum (not get-pip.py)
1. yum update -y
– yeah, this can take a while, but it’s worth it
2. yum install wget
3. Install EPEL (this is key; otherwise all the following steps will mysteriously fail):wget http://ift.tt/1htTSIk
sudo rpm -Uvh epel-release-6*.rpm
4. yum install python-devel
5. yum install python-pip
6. pip install http://ift.tt/15ToC42
7. pip install whisper
8. pip install carbon
9. pip install graphite-web
From here follow this step-by-step:
EPEL install:
I had some problems with installing carbon. some “gcc” comand failed in the very last step, throwing angry red text (like this: http://ift.tt/1ErmeRg). Anything that takes that much work is worth abandoning. Then I saw yum has it (in EPEL). Well, I couldn’t figure out how to uninstall pip. heh heh:
pip uninstall pip
