Title: System Monitoring function
Post by: kenironside on January 06, 2006, 08:12:24 AM
In the screenshots of 6.5 there is a section in Server Manager called System Monitoring which has a number of graphs.

I installed 7.0beta9 to evaluate it and this function doesn't appear.

Has this function been removed or do I need to install an additional module? If so, can I have some sdvice on which contribs I should look at?

Thanks, Ken

Hey,

I was going to reply earlier, but couldn't find the how to that I used origionally.

Not sure if this works on SME 7 but I'm using it on SME 6.5 and loving it.

Oooops....I found an entry here:
http://no.longer.valid/mylinks/  second topic from top

[Start of quote]
"It seems that the "sar" [sysstat-5.0.5-1] that comes with SME7 as changed its sintaxis and that was the reason why e-smith-sysmon that worked under SME6 was not working.

There's also a problem with the "disk usage part" in /usr/sbin/sysmon when using df with >=22 char length partitions.

I changed the code to use Filesys::DiskFree.
The RPM, SRPM and a quick explanation is on http://www.tw.co.nz/contribs/sysmon/"
[End of quote]

The address given for RPM does not work for me, but you can get to it with:
http://tw.co.nz/contribs/sysmon/

There are other rpms required for sysmon, I tried to install and got this:

Code: [Select]
e-smith-sysmon-4.1-2.noarch.rpm          sysmon.perl.fixed
perl-Filesys-DiskFree-0.06-1.noarch.rpm  sysstat-4.0.5-3.i386.rpm
rrdtool-1.0.39-1.7.2.i386.rpm
[root@sme7prerc1 sysmon]# rpm -ivh *.rpm
warning: rrdtool-1.0.39-1.7.2.i386.rpm: V3 RSA/MD5 signature: NOKEY, key ID 397dcad5

   3:perl-Filesys-DiskFree  ########################################### [ 75%]
   4:e-smith-sysmon         ########################################### [100%]

Unfortunately, its not working, possibly a problem with rrdtool because /var/lib/rrd is not to be found. This is as far as I got...

I would love to get MRTG on SME7, does anybody have it working?
