samba PMDA
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
This PMDA is a sample that illustrates how a simple samba monitor
|
|
PMDA might be constructed, using a shared memory segment to transfer
|
|
information about transaction activity from the smb daemon.
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
This PMDA may be remade from source and hence requires
|
|
a C compiler and Perl to be installed.
|
|
|
|
Uses of make(1) may fail (without removing or clobbering files)
|
|
if the C compiler cannot be found. This is most likely to
|
|
happen when running the PMDA ./Install script.
|
|
|
|
The only remedial action is to install the C compiler, or
|
|
hand-craft changes to the Makefile.
|
|
|
|
Metrics
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
The file ./help contains descriptions for all of the metrics exported
|
|
by this PMDA.
|
|
|
|
Once the PMDA has been installed, the following command will list all
|
|
the available metrics and their explanatory "help" text:
|
|
|
|
$ pminfo -fT samba
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
+ # mkdir /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
|
+ # cp * /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
|
+ # cp ../source/include/profile.h /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
|
+ # cd /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
|
|
|
+ Check that there is no clash in the Performance Metrics Domain
|
|
defined in ./domain.h and the other PMDAs currently in use
|
|
(/etc/pmcd.conf). If there is, edit ./domain.h to choose another
|
|
domain number.
|
|
|
|
+ If you are not installing on an IRIX system, edit samba.c and
|
|
comment out the
|
|
|
|
#define IRIX 1
|
|
|
|
+ Then simply use
|
|
|
|
# ./Install
|
|
|
|
+ Alternatively, to install just the Performance Metrics Name Space
|
|
for the samba metrics on the local system, but not the samba PMDA
|
|
(presumably because the local system is running PCP 1.x and you
|
|
wish to connect to a remote system where PCP 2.0 and the samba PMDA
|
|
is running), make sure the Performance Metrics Domain defined in
|
|
./domain.h matches the domain chosen for the samba PMDA on the
|
|
remote system (check the second field in the corresponding line of
|
|
the pmcd.conf file on the remote system - located in /etc on IRIX
|
|
and /var/pcp/config/pmcd on Linux), then
|
|
|
|
# ./Install -N
|
|
|
|
De-installation
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
+ Simply use
|
|
|
|
# cd /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
|
# ./Remove
|
|
|
|
+ If you also want to remove the sources use
|
|
|
|
# cd /
|
|
# rm -rf /var/pcp/pmdas/samba
|
|
|
|
Making something happen
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
The application "smbd" updates the shared memory segment to add
|
|
profile information about smbd. By default updating is disabled.
|
|
To start updating of the shared memory segment you need to run the
|
|
smbcontrol command to turn on profiling for one or more smbd processes
|
|
(see the man page for smbcontrol).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Troubleshooting
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
+ After installing or restarting the agent, the PMCD log file
|
|
(pmcd.log) and the PMDA log file (samba.log) should be checked
|
|
for any warnings or errors. These logs are located in
|
|
/var/log/pcp/pmcd on Linux and /var/adm/pcplog on IRIX.
