Configuring Minion via confd

For information on testing confd templates, see Test confd templates.

Mounting

When starting the Minion container, mount a yaml file to the following path: /opt/minion/minion-config.yaml.

Any configuration provided to confd overwrites configuration specified as environment variables. Direct overlay of specific configuration files overwrites the corresponding configuration that confd provides.

YAML file contents

The following describes the keys in minion-config.yaml that configure the Minion via confd.

Minion Controller Config

broker-url: "<broker url>"
http-url: "<http url>"
id: "<id>"
location: "<location>"

Writes specified configuration to etc/org.opennms.minion.controller.cfg.

User/Password

It is not possible to supply the http or broker username/password via yaml file for configuration via confd.

Instance ID

org.opennms.instance.id: "<instance id>"

Writes specified configuration to etc/instance-id.properties.

Single port flows

To configure flows on a single port, set the following enabled key to true. Optionally, you can provide parameters to include in the generated configuration.

telemetry:
    flows:
        single-port-listener:
            # Set to true to add single port listener config, omit or set to false to disable
            enabled: true
            # Parameters can be optionally provided
            parameters:
                # This translates to parameters.port=50000 in the generated config
                port: 50000

Writes specified configuration to etc/org.opennms.features.telemtry.listeners-udp-single-port-flows.cfg.

Telemetry flow listeners

You can configure individual flow listeners and define any number of uniquely named listeners. The example below shows how to specify parameters and parsers.

telemetry:
    flows:
        listeners:
            NXOS-Listener:
                class-name: "org.opennms.netmgt.telemetry.listeners.UdpListener"
                parameters:
                    # List all the parameters you wish to specify here
                    port: 50002
                parsers:
                    # List all the parsers you wish to specify here
                    NXOS:
                        class-name: "org.opennms.netmgt.telemetry.protocols.common.parser.ForwardParser"
                        # Parsers can also have parameters specified
