====== DB Connectors ======
===== Purpose =====

  * Pro.Monitor cockpit needs at least 3 connectors:
    * One **MYSQL** connector to the **Primary** SQL database (which will store administration data)
    * One MYSQL connector per **Tenant**, which will store and isolate tenant's data
    * One **Victoria** (Time series DB) connector per tenant for the metrics

===== Get started =====

  * The first database to create is the **primary**. It will store all administration data that you will create later (tenants, DB connectors, properties etc...).
  * The primary DB will be using a MYSQL connector.
  * Make sure to activate **Primary DB** and **Init DB** check boxes when you create the connector.
  * Once done, create a MYSQL DB connector to connect to each tenant's DB
  * Then create a **Victoria** connector for each tenant
  * Then create your [[..:administration:tenants|tenant]] and assign the connectors accordingly

Once created, the main configuration DB connector **cannot be removed**. You must create a new one before.
