apm-server

apm-server is the server receives data from the Elastic APM agents and stores the data into a datastore like Elasticsearch.

DEPRECATION NOTICE

This chart is deprecated and no longer supported.

Introduction

This chart deploys apm-server agents to all the nodes in your cluster via a DaemonSet.

By default this chart only ships a single output to a file on the local system. Users should set config.output.file.enabled=false and configure their own outputs as documented

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.9+

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release, run:

$ helm install --name my-release stable/apm-server

After a few minutes, you should see service statuses being written to the configured output, which is a log file inside the apm-server container.

Tip

: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

$ helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.
