Hi. So, I want to scrape the status(Running/Not Running) of vmware-tools service running on all my VMWare servers. For CentOS 7, its pretty straight forward using the systemd collector but for CentOS 6, I am in bit of a pickle. Since, node exporter is running on all my servers, easiest solution would be to create a small bash script and export its output for textfile collector but that would require a cron to be added for the script to give the data continuously.
Is there any way to achieve this without putting a cron for the script? For example, in the Nagios based Check_MK monitoring agent, any script that is put under /etc/check_mk folder is self evaluated at every scrape. Is cron the best solution, or something better can be done here? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
