# Notice

If you are heavily using k8s and adopting microservices architecture, we recommend you to upgrade to use [Nightingale](https://github.com/ccfos/nightingale) building your modern monitoring system.

- [Nightingale](https://github.com/ccfos/nightingale) is an enterprise-level cloud-native monitoring tool, which can be used as drop-in replacement of Prometheus for alerting and management.
- [Categraf](https://github.com/flashcatcloud/categraf) is one-stop telemetry collector for Nightingale / Prometheus / M3DB / VictoriaMetrics / Thanos / Influxdb / TDengine.

It is recommended that you use [FlashDuty](https://flashcat.cloud/product/flashduty?from=categraf) as the OnCall system to realize alarm aggregation convergence, claiming, upgrading, scheduling, and coordination, so that the alarm can be reached efficiently and ensure that the alarm processing is not missed.

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/open-falcon/falcon-plus/scripts/mysql/db_schema/
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p < 1_uic-db-schema.sql
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p < 2_portal-db-schema.sql
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p < 3_dashboard-db-schema.sql
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p < 4_graph-db-schema.sql
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p < 5_alarms-db-schema.sql

# make all modules
make all

# make specified module
make agent

# pack all modules

* *if you want to edit configure file for each module, you can edit `config/xxx.json` before you do `make pack`*

#  Unpack and Decompose

```
export WorkDir="$HOME/open-falcon"
mkdir -p $WorkDir
tar -xzvf open-falcon-vx.x.x.tar.gz -C $WorkDir
cd $WorkDir
```

# Start all modules in single host
```
cd $WorkDir
./open-falcon start

# check modules status
./open-falcon check

```
