Configuring Performance Monitor Security

By default, any user can access the Performance Monitor page and view the the performance matrix. You can set up RAS Performance Monitor to use credentials, so that only authorized users can view it.

First, remove anonymous authentication from the Grafana configuration file as follows:

1. Open file C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\RAS Performance Monitor\conf\defaults.ini.
2. In the file, look for the following:

   #################################### Anonymous Auth ######################

   [auth.anonymous]

   # enable anonymous access

   enabled = true

3. Change "enabled = true" to "enabled = false".

Restart the Grafana service and log in to Grafana console as follows:

• URL: http://yourserver:3000/login?redirect=%2Fdashboard%2Fdb%2Fras-infrastructure-health
