[collectd] Collecting number of rows in a SNMP table (or similar)
Hi, I'm new to collectd but I'm really optimistic that it might be a good solution for our data-gathering needs. I have not read all the documentation of all plugins etc but I have a quick question: I need to count the number of each interface type on our (100+) Cisco switches and also the number of how many of these are populated by fiber-optic modules and how many have their links up or down. Today I do this by some ugly homemade collection scripts but they are not very scalable when I in the future are gonna count routing tables and other things. PS: I don't need a detailed explanation of how to do this, just a Yes or No, if there indeed is a way, I will (atleast try to) figure it out for myself :) Cheers, Stian Øvrevåge ___ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
[collectd] Is there a way to to BIND plugin workable ?
Hi there,
Sorry for my english.
Well, I am trying to load just BIND plugin. Doesn't work for me..
What I did :
- add this
statistics-channels {
inet localhost port 8053;
};
to my named.conf
- add this
URL "http://localhost:8053/"; ;
OpCodes true
QTypes true
ServerStats true
ZoneMaintStats true
ResolverStats false
MemoryStats true
QTypestrue
ResolverStats true
CacheRRSets true
Zone "127.in-addr.arpa/IN"
to collectd.conf
add this :
Loadplugin bind
to collectd.conf too.
I am on lenny, get the "collectdCould not find plugin bind." error message.
Please, help me,
2 hours on that, I am becoming crazy..
Oh, /usr/lib/collectd/bind.so doesn't exist.. normal ?
Ju.

If you're using the package on lenny, it should be version collectd 4.4, the bind plugin is available since 4.6. You should either compile a more recent version of collectd or install a more recent package. -- regards, Manuel CISSE ___ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
[collectd] Thresholds
I'm getting started using thresholds with collectd and had a couple of questions. I see in the examples that you can use a Type for stuff like cpu, but you need to use a Plugin for "memory" and "interface". Is there any set of base plugins that you can use without the Plugin tag or something? Also, I'm trying to do a threshold with df with a percentage and based only on ext3 type filesystems. I'm doing it like this currently: Instance "ext3" Percentage true FailureMin 2 I know it's a low number - I'm just trying to trigger a failure in the log file. Do I need to wrap the Type in a Plugin? Is ext3 something that needs to be an Instance or a DataSource? I ask because even taking out the Instance line, it doesn't trigger an error and I'm pretty sure it should. Thanks. ___ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd

[collectd] SNMPv3
Hi again list, Does anyone know when and if SNMPv3 will be supported in the snmp-plugin? Cheers, Stian Øvrevåge ___ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
[collectd] Thresholds, updated
So after looking at the docs a little more I ended up with this as a configuration for the df threshold: FSType "ext3" Percentage true ReportReserved true FailureMin 2 Is that correct syntax? Should that fire if the ext3 type filesystems exceed 2% capacity? I'm still not sure if the Plugin wrapper is needed... Thanks. ___ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
[collectd] Thresholds - nevermind
Disregard the previous questions about thresholds. I'm still learning about how things work. I had an incorrect value in my fstab file as well as a misunderstanding of what can go into the Threshold Type element. ___ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
