using blackbox exporter along with ec2_sd_config

[ASIF ABDUL LATHEEF]

I have 15 ec2 instances and i want to check the service status of multiple ports ( like 22, 443, 80, 8000 etc ) of all these instances, which i think is done by using blackbox exporter. So, can i create a single job for this by combining ec2_sd_config with blackbox exporter.? how can i give multiple ports in such a case.?

Hi Asif,

Since basically you would want to create multiple targets (same host, different ports) for every host target that is returned from EC2 SD, you would indeed have to create one job per port to monitor, as a scrape configuration cannot "split up" a single target into multiple, it can only modify and filter each individual target, but it can't create new ones.

Regards,

Julius

Hi Julius,

Thank you for the clarification. I will continue with your instruction, but it will be too long with a lot of jobs.
