vmc-monitor

Scrape basic metrics from a VM and containers running in it for monitoring

Update the following if you are using VictoriaMetrics

docker-compose.yaml

      - '--remoteWrite.url="<DEFINE_ME>"'
      - '--remoteWrite.basicAuth.password="<DEFINE_ME>"'
      - '--remoteWrite.basicAuth.username="<DEFINE_ME>"'
      - '--remoteWrite.headers=X-Scope-OrgID:<DEFINE_ME>' # use for Grafana Mimir

Additionally, pay attention to your volume mount to ensure disk space is available.
