Greetings

 

I've just installed ClusterControl, and used it to install Galera on several remote hosts.

In their logs, I see this line thousands of times:

`[Warning] Access denied for user 'mysqld_exporter'@'127.0.0.1' (using password: YES)`

Do I have to create or give access to this user manually? what is it for?

 

Thanks in advane

 

Regards

  Hi,

  The mysqld_exporter user is used to generate the Dashboards section in ClusterControl.

  The user should be created when you enable the Dashboards if the database user has the corresponding grants.

  You can re-enable the Dashboards to try to fix this issue (ClusterControl -> Select the cluster -> Dashboards -> Settings -> Re-enable).

  If you have this issue after doing this, you can open a ticket with us and we can follow the case there: https://severalnines.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

  Regards,

  Sebastian.

  Thanks for your fast answer.

   

  I did "re-enable", the task was executed and gave me an OK status, however, the error still floods the log.
