7 | samba PMDA
|
---|
8 | ===========
|
---|
9 |
|
---|
10 | This PMDA is a sample that illustrates how a simple samba monitor
|
---|
11 | PMDA might be constructed, using a shared memory segment to transfer
|
---|
12 | information about transaction activity from the smb daemon.
|
---|
13 |
|
---|
14 | Note:
|
---|
15 | This PMDA may be remade from source and hence requires
|
---|
16 | a C compiler and Perl to be installed.
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | Uses of make(1) may fail (without removing or clobbering files)
|
---|
19 | if the C compiler cannot be found. This is most likely to
|
---|
20 | happen when running the PMDA ./Install script.
|
---|
21 |
|
---|
22 | The only remedial action is to install the C compiler, or
|
---|
23 | hand-craft changes to the Makefile.
|
---|
24 |
|
---|
25 | Metrics
|
---|
26 | =======
|
---|
27 |
|
---|
28 | The file ./help contains descriptions for all of the metrics exported
|
---|
29 | by this PMDA.
|
---|
30 |
|
---|
31 | Once the PMDA has been installed, the following command will list all
|
---|
32 | the available metrics and their explanatory "help" text:
|
---|
33 |
|
---|
34 | $ pminfo -fT samba
|
---|
35 |
|
---|
36 | Installation
|
---|
37 | ============
|
---|
38 |
|
---|
39 | + # mkdir /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
---|
40 | + # cp * /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
---|
41 | + # cp ../source/include/profile.h /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
---|
42 | + # cd /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
---|
43 |
|
---|
44 | + Check that there is no clash in the Performance Metrics Domain
|
---|
45 | defined in ./domain.h and the other PMDAs currently in use
|
---|
46 | (/etc/pmcd.conf). If there is, edit ./domain.h to choose another
|
---|
47 | domain number.
|
---|
48 |
|
---|
49 | + If you are not installing on an IRIX system, edit samba.c and
|
---|
50 | comment out the
|
---|
51 |
|
---|
52 | #define IRIX 1
|
---|
53 |
|
---|
54 | + Then simply use
|
---|
55 |
|
---|
56 | # ./Install
|
---|
57 |
|
---|
58 | + Alternatively, to install just the Performance Metrics Name Space
|
---|
59 | for the samba metrics on the local system, but not the samba PMDA
|
---|
60 | (presumably because the local system is running PCP 1.x and you
|
---|
61 | wish to connect to a remote system where PCP 2.0 and the samba PMDA
|
---|
62 | is running), make sure the Performance Metrics Domain defined in
|
---|
63 | ./domain.h matches the domain chosen for the samba PMDA on the
|
---|
64 | remote system (check the second field in the corresponding line of
|
---|
65 | the pmcd.conf file on the remote system - located in /etc on IRIX
|
---|
66 | and /var/pcp/config/pmcd on Linux), then
|
---|
67 |
|
---|
68 | # ./Install -N
|
---|
69 |
|
---|
70 | De-installation
|
---|
71 | ===============
|
---|
72 |
|
---|
73 | + Simply use
|
---|
74 |
|
---|
75 | # cd /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
---|
76 | # ./Remove
|
---|
77 |
|
---|
78 | + If you also want to remove the sources use
|
---|
79 |
|
---|
80 | # cd /
|
---|
81 | # rm -rf /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
---|
82 |
|
---|
83 | Making something happen
|
---|
84 | =======================
|
---|
85 |
|
---|
86 | The application "smbd" updates the shared memory segment to add
|
---|
87 | profile information about smbd. By default updating is disabled.
|
---|
88 | To start updating of the shared memory segment you need to run the
|
---|
89 | smbcontrol command to turn on profiling for one or more smbd processes
|
---|
90 | (see the man page for smbcontrol).
|
---|
91 |
|
---|
92 |
|
---|
93 |
|
---|
94 | Troubleshooting
|
---|
95 | ===============
|
---|
96 |
|
---|
97 | + After installing or restarting the agent, the PMCD log file
|
---|
98 | (pmcd.log) and the PMDA log file (samba.log) should be checked
|
---|
99 | for any warnings or errors. These logs are located in
|
---|
100 | /var/log/pcp/pmcd on Linux and /var/adm/pcplog on IRIX.
