For years now , I've been utilizing smokeping to monitor for loss and especially high latency on a large plant . Adding and removing clients from the config file is frequent . I don't mind quickly editing the config file , I would like for others in my group to also be able to at least add targets , the last time I tried to have others edit entries, the config file kept getting trashed . The process I gave them to use made a backup of the config before edit so it was easy to fix.
I keep meaning to sit down and create a form based process for entering the targets . Has anybody ever created either a client side or server side solution for adding targets to the config file ? I've never understood exactly how to utilize the smokemail script , our clients would never be able to run a perl script and some targets are appliances so the smokemail was never important enough to figure out . Perhaps it could be modified into a solution that could provide form based entry and submit to the smokeping server . I've never seen a working of example of the smokemail process. I like the idea of it but have never been able to understand exactly how to configure it . I'm sure others must have wanted a form based entry solution , any ideas or examples out there ?
