Grafana template init error

[hv-tester]

Installed graphite, grafana and harvest 1.4.2 based on NetApp_Harvest_IAG_1.4.2.pdf and Graphite_Grafana_Quick_Start_v1.4.pdf (Ubuntu 14 based) . Data is present in graphite, but dashboards do not work. See error down.

Templating init failed

{"err":{"data":null,"status":-1,"config":{"method":"GET","transformRequest":[null],"transformResponse":[null],"jsonpCallbackParam":"callback","url":"http://<server>:81/metrics/find","params":{"query":"netapp.perf7.*"},"inspect":{"type":"graphite"},"retry":0,"headers":{"Accept":"application/json, text/plain, */*"}},"statusText":"","xhrStatus":"error"},"cancelled":true}

Du you have a default datasource defined in Grafana ?

Check what is the datasource for the dashboard template variables.

Wait, it seems you have "http://<server>:81/" defined somewhere, that is wrong, you need to replace <server> by the graphite IP address.

I did not want to post to correct server adress.

In the meantime it is fixed. It's a firewall issue. Using a Client in the same network segment everything works fine and expected.

Thanks for your support
