Sysdig
Sysdig is a unified platform for container and microservices monitoring, troubleshooting, security and forensics. Sysdig platform has been built on top of Sysdig tool and Sysdig Inspect open-source technologies.
Introduction
This chart adds the Sysdig agent for Sysdig Monitor and Sysdig Secure to all nodes in your cluster via a DaemonSet.
Prerequisites
- Kubernetes 1.2+ with Beta APIs enabled
Installing the Chart
To install the chart with the release name my-release, retrieve your Sysdig Monitor Access Key from your Account Settings and run:
$ helm install --name my-release \
--set sysdig.accessKey=YOUR-KEY-HERE stable/sysdig
After a few seconds, you should see hosts and containers appearing in Sysdig Monitor and Sysdig Secure.
Tip
: List all releases using
helm list
Uninstalling the Chart
To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:
$ helm delete my-release
Tip
: Use helm delete --purge my-release to completely remove the release from Helm internal storage
The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

--set sysdig.accessKey=YOUR-KEY-HERE \
--set sysdig.settings.collector=42.32.196.18 \
--set sysdig.settings.collector_port=6443 \
--set sysdig.settings.ssl_verify_certificate=false \
