1、安装主要依赖关系
配置yum，创建/etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo 并编辑内容如下：
[epel]name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch #mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-6&arch=$basearch failovermethod=priority enabled=1 gpgcheck= gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
安装主要依赖：
yum install bitmap bitmap-fonts-compat Django django-tagging fontconfig cairo python-devel python-memcached python-twisted pycairo mod_python python-ldap python-simplejson memcached python-zope-interface mod_wsgi python-sqlite2 bitmap Django django-tagging mod_python python-sqlite2 -y
2、下载源代码包
Graphite主要由三个部分组成：carbon，graphite-web，whisper。下载源代码数据包并解压缩如下：
下载并解压Graphite-web:
wget https://launchpadlibrarian.net/106575888/graphite-web-0.9.10.tar.gz tar -axf graphite-web-0.9.10.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src/
PS：在解压缩了graphite-web-0.9.10数据包之后，利用其中的“check-dependencies.py”文件已经依赖关系的检查，再执行完该python脚本后，从其输出结果中可以看到有哪些额外的程序需要安装，缺少什么则利用yum程序在线安装即可，直到后检测的结果提示如：All necessary dependencies are met.与 All optional dependencies are met. 则代表所有依赖关系均已解决。
下载并解压Whisper ：
wget https://launchpadlibrarian.net/106575859/whisper-0.9.10.tar.gz tar -axf whisper-0.9.10.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src/
下载并解压carbon：
wget https://launchpadlibrarian.net/106575865/carbon-0.9.10.tar.gz tar -axf carbon-0.9.10.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src/
在下载与解压以上三部分代码包之后，分别进入各自解压后的数据包，并执行各自的python setup.py install，则完成Graphite三部分基本安装。
3、配置httpd相关文件
在/etc/httpd/conf.d/graphite.conf文件，执行 vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/graphite.conf 并写入如下类容：
Listen 8080 # You may need to manually edit this file to fit your needs. # This configuration assumes the default installation prefix # of /opt/graphite/, if you installed graphite somewhere else # you will need to change all the occurances of /opt/graphite/ # in this file to your chosen install location. <VirtualHost *:8080> ServerName graphite DocumentRoot "/opt/graphite/webapp" # I've found that an equal number of processes & threads tends # to show the best performance for Graphite (ymmv). WSGIDaemonProcess graphite processes=5 threads=5 display-name='%{GROUP}' inactivity-timeout=120 WSGIProcessGroup graphite # You will need to create this file! There is a graphite.wsgi.example # file in this directory that you can safely use, just copy it to graphite.wgsi WSGIScriptAlias / /opt/graphite/conf/graphite.wsgi Alias /content/ /opt/graphite/webapp/content/ <Location "/content/"> SetHandler None </Location> # NOTE: In order for the django admin site media to work you # must change @DJANGO_ROOT@ to be the path to your django # installation, which is probably something like: # /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django Alias /media/ "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/" <Location "/media/"> SetHandler None </Location> # The graphite.wsgi file has to be accessible by apache. It won't # be visible to clients because of the DocumentRoot though. <Directory /opt/graphite/conf/> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost>
vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/wsgi.conf 并写入如下内容：
LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so
WSGISocketPrefix /var/run/wsg
4、配置Graphite：
分别执行如下命令，创建Graphite所必要的配置文件，一般来说就是将 /opt/graphite/conf/下的多个文件后缀中的example除去而生成可用的配置文件，这里好是保留原有的*example 文件，以其出去后缀example的复件作为其配置文件使用。
cd /opt/graphite/conf/ cp graphite.wsgi.example graphite.wsgi cp carbon.conf.example carbon.conf cp storage-schemas.conf.example storage-schemas.conf cd /opt/graphite/webapp/ cp local_settings.py.example local_setting.py
打开Django部分的settings.py文件，并作如下修改：
vim /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite/settings.py
以下是settings.py原有的关于数据库配置选项：
DATABASE_ENGINE = 'django.db.backends.sqlite3' # 'postgresql', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'ado_mssql'. #DATABASE_NAME = '' # Or path to database file if using sqlite3. #DATABASE_USER = '' # Not used with sqlite3. #DATABASE_PASSWORD = '' # Not used with sqlite3. #DATABASE_HOST = '' # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3. #DATABASE_PORT = '' # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.
在以上原有的基础上添加如下：
DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', 'NAME': '/opt/graphite/storage/graphite', 'USER': '', 'PASSWORD': '',
'HOST': '',
'PORT': '', } }
PS:这里为了方便，所以只用了sqlite数据库，如需使用例如MySQL数据库，则可以在此处填入相应数据库的配置选项即可。
5、数据库初始化
Graphite执行数据库初始化的过程与Django类似，cd /opt/graphite/webapp 进入该目录后执行 python manage.py syncdb 则执行数据库的初始化过程，并根据输出提示填入用户名、密码以及电子邮件等内容即可完成初始化过程。
[root@localhost ~]# python /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite/manage.py syncdb /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py:75: DeprecationWarning: The ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX setting has been removed; use STATIC_URL instead. "use STATIC_URL instead.", DeprecationWarning) /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py:110: DeprecationWarning: The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty. warnings.warn("The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty.", DeprecationWarning) /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/cache/__init__.py:82: DeprecationWarning: settings.CACHE_* is deprecated; use settings.CACHES instead.

Installing custom SQL ... Installing indexes ... Installed object(s) from fixture(s)
并在后修改/opt/graphite目录的所有者属性：
chown -R apache.apache /opt/graphitePS：在开启Graphite之前好检查一下Graphite目录以及目录中的各项文件或者目录文件的所有者是否是apache。
执行完以上步骤之后重启httpd服务并且开启graphite：
service httpd restart
python /opt/graphite/bin/carbon-cache.py start
6、访问Graphite主页
