Adding password for gpu-monitoring-tools?

10/3/2019

I was testing gpu-monitoring-tools for our cluster but wondered how to add password for it. Could someone give me guidance? If I install the gpu-monitoring-tools with helm like described in the link, it doesn't require any credentials to see the metrics and I wonder how to add the password.

The default username and password for grafana is, admin:admin. While logging in using these you will get option to change username and password.

Please read about Grafana permissions There are only 3 Roles (Admin, Editor, Viewer). Also many depends on Organization Role.

If you have installed everything correctly according to gpu-monitoring-tools you shoudl have pod with grafana name.

$ kubectl get pods -n monitoring | grep grafana

Next if you will enter the grafana pod (kube-prometheus-grafana-69647b646f-rftvw from monitoring ns)

$ kubectl exec -ti -n monitoring kube-prometheus-grafana-69647b646f-rftvw -c grafana /bin/bash

Check what Grafana configuration file contains.

$ cat /etc/grafana/grafana.ini

Under Security section, you can find entry:

[security]
# default admin user, created on startup
;admin_user = admin
# default admin password, can be changed before first start of grafana,  or in profile settings
;admin_password = admin

So default Administrator pass to grafana is admin/admin

If you will scroll bellow to Anonymous Auth You will have entries like:

# specify organization name that should be used for unauthenticated users
;org_name = Main Org.

# specify role for unauthenticated users
;org_role = Viewer

Its mean that person who is not authorized have Viewer role. That is why you are able to see metrics without any authentication. But this is only first time when you enter Grafana. If you will logout you need to provide credentials

If you want to change password, on bottom left corner you have your user icon.

User Profile > Preferences > Change password

Second option if you are Administrator, on the left side of UI.

Configuration > Server Admin

On the Users tab you can change anyones password.

Hope it helped.
