This document explains how to setup Prometheus and configure it to scrape data from MinIO servers.

## Prerequisites

To get started with MinIO, refer [MinIO QuickStart Document](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/index.html#quickstart-for-linux).
Follow below steps to get started with MinIO monitoring using Prometheus.

### 1. Download Prometheus

	bannerWidth = len(logTag) + 1
)

func (f fatalMsg) pretty(msg string, args ...interface{}) {
	// Build the passed error message
	errMsg := fmt.Sprintf(msg, args...)

	stats, err := readStat(statsFile)
	if err != nil {

	}
	if len(stats) < 11 {
		return IOStats{}, fmt.Errorf("found invalid format while reading %v", statsFile)
	}

## MinIO Grafana Dashboard

Visualize MinIO metrics with our official Grafana dashboard available on the [Grafana dashboard portal](https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/13502).

Refer to the dashboard [json file here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/minio/master/docs/metrics/prometheus/grafana/minio-dashboard.json).
