As we previously went through several configuration definitions, we're now ready to put them to practice by managing a standalone instance of Prometheus. In these examples, we'll be exposing several configurations while providing an environment to validate them.
Managing Prometheus in a standalone server
Server deploy
To create a new instance of Prometheus, move into the correct repository path, as shown here:
cd chapter05/
Ensure that no other test environments are running and spin up this chapter's environment, like so:
vagrant global-status
vagrant up
After a few moments, the new instance will be available for inspection, and the Prometheus web interface will be accessible at http://192.168.42.10:9090.
