I try to monitor Hawkular with manageiq on Centos 7. These are my monitoring implementation process which are run on root privilege.

First cassandra nosql db is executed.

# systemctl start cassandra

And next I execute the hawkular server like below as root

# unzip hawkular-services-dist-0.23.0.Final.zip
# ./add-user.sh -a -u username -p password -g read-write,read-only
# ./standalone.sh -Dhawkular.rest.user=username -Dhawkular.rest.password=password -Dhawkular.agent.enabled=true

And then, I run Docker and related manageiq docker-image.

# systemctl start docker
# docker pull manageiq/manageiq:euwe-1
# docker run --privileged -d -p 8443:443 manageiq/manageiq:euwe-1

I run manageiq on Firefox with the following address and it works successfully with user admin and password smartvm.

https://localhost:8443

And I try to add Hawkular middleware on manageiq web UI with the menu "Add New Middleware Provider" However error message is shown, 

"Required. Should have privileged access, such as root or administrator."

I cannot understand this error message. Hawkular server and manageiq are run on root privilege. How can I add Hawkular service into manageiq monitoring service?

  • Is there anything related to this in the MangeIQ logs? Are you able to add a different kind of provider? – Heiko Rupp Jan 23 '17 at 15:40
  • Thank you for your reply. It seems I have some problems with the docker certificate files of .docker folder. The web browser clients have no previlige to access mqanageiq docker container without .docker folder. But I have no idea where to generate docker certificates files on centos 7. Any idea? – Joseph Hwang Jan 23 '17 at 23:36
  • Is it possible that this is a simple file permission issue? E.g. when you 1st run docker as root and then later as non-root user, which can't access that .docker dir? – Heiko Rupp Jan 24 '17 at 14:38
  • After running docker manageiq container, I execute " docker exec -ti bash -l" to access docker container and "# machinectl" on manageiq container inside. But no machine returns. ManageIQ seems not to be executed on the container. Any idea? – Joseph Hwang Jan 28 '17 at 23:26

I solved it. My OS is windows 10 pro, but my hyper-v service was deactivated. I activated hyper-v and it worked well. Thanks any way

  • Glad it works. So you run Hawkular-services + C* also on HyperV on Win10? – Heiko Rupp Jan 30 '17 at 17:09
  • Actually, not perfectly. Pls, check this question, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41933290/manageiq-docker-container-cannot-not-be-connected-with-web-browser Best regards. – Joseph Hwang Jan 30 '17 at 23:19
