This is release v0.9.1 of the Grafana Cloud Agent. This is a minor release that adds agentctl to the rpm and deb packages. Users on versions prior to v0.9.1 should not need to update.
Notable changes:
agentctl will now be installed by the rpm and deb packages as grafana-agentctl.
Installation:
Grafana Cloud Agent is currently distributed in plain binary form, Docker
container images, and a Kubernetes install script. Choose whichever fits your
use-case best.
Kubernetes Install Script
The following scripts will download and install two Kubernetes manifests for the
Agent. The first manifest collects metrics, the second collects logs, and the
final collects traces. You will be prompted for input for each manifest. The
script requires curl and envsubst (GNU gettext).
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/grafana/agent/v0.9.1/production/kubernetes/install.sh)" | kubectl -ndefault apply -f -
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/grafana/agent/v0.9.1/production/kubernetes/install-loki.sh)" | kubectl -ndefault apply -f -
