Hi All, has anybody succeded in using SNMP statistics of cyrus IMAP server ? If so, can you please point me in right direction of how to monitor the activity of Cyrus-imapd-2.1.11 server? I've heard about togowar, but cyrus documents are empty in this chapter ...-------------------------------------- Best regards, Novosjolov Dmitry
I actually wrote a couple scripts that monitor the server. One script is
just meant to be called from the command line (snmp_query) and displays
the results in a clean easy to understand format. The sample output is as
follows:
Cyrus IMAP Server v2.0.16
Thu Jan 23 09:10:55 EST 2003
Up 5 days, 0:36:29
Services Forks Running Maximum
----------- ---------- ---------- ----------
imap 2046 31 48
pop3 1158 2 11
imaps 14181 1672 2127
pop3s 3922 23 72
imaps_silky 3552 22 62
lmtp 1350 32 113
lmtpunix 150 0 1
=========== ========== ========== ==========
Total 26359 1782 2434
NOTES
-----------------------------------------------------------
Forks = Total number of forks since server was started.
Running = Total number of processes currently running.
Maximum = Maximum number of processes running concurrently.
The other script (check_cyrus) is for logging and I use a cron job that
runs it periodically and appends the output to a log file. The output
of that script looks like the following (all on one line, though):
01/23 09:11 5 days, 0:37:08 imap=31/48 pop3=2/11 imaps=1672/2127
pop3s=23/72 imaps_silky=22/62 lmtp=32/113 lmtpunix=0/1
The above data should be easy enough to parse so that you can push it
through a grapher, such as gnuplot or maybe even excel.
I will attach both scripts. Maybe if the CMU folks like it, they can
put it in the contrib directory?
Oh, I actually just called the snmpwalk program directly and didn't
use the SNMP perl module. Maybe somebody else can retrofit the script
to do that. Anyawys, it should require just minor tweaking to get it
to work on your system.
