|
|
B<monadd> - Registers a monitoring plug-in to the xCAT cluster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
I<monadd [-h| --help]>
|
|
|
|
I<monadd [-v| --version]>
|
|
|
|
I<monadd name [-n|--nodestatmon] [-s|--settings settings]>
|

|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This command is used to register a monitoring plug-in module to monitor the xCAT cluster. The plug-in module will be added to the xCAT I<monitoring> database table and the configuration scripts for the monitoring plug-in, if any, will be added to the I<postscripts> table. A monitoring plug-in module acts as a bridge that connects a 3rd party monitoring software and the xCAT cluster. A configuration script is used to configure the 3rd party software. Once added to the <postscripts> table, it will be invoked on the nodes during node deployment stage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head1 Parameters
|
|
|
|
I<name> is the name of the monitoring plug-in module. For example, if the the I<name> is called I<xxx>, then the actual file name that the xcatd looks for is I</opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_monitoring/xxx.pm>. Use I<monls -a> command to list all the monitoring plug-in modules that can be used.
|
|
|
|
I<settings> is the monitoring plug-in specific settings. It is used to customize the behavior of the plug-in or configure the 3rd party software. Format: I<[key-value],[key=value]...> Please note that the square brackets are needed here. Use I<monls name -d> command to look for the possbile setting keys for a plug-in module.

|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
|
B<-h | --help> Display usage message.
|
|
|
|
B<-n | --nodestatmon> Indicate that this monitoring plug-in will be used for feeding the node liveness status to the xCAT I<nodelist> table.
|
|
|
|
B<-s | --settings> Specifies the plug-in specific settings. These settings will be used by the plug-in to customize certain entities for the plug-in or the third party monitoring software. e.g. [mon_interval=10],[toggle=1].
|
|
|
|
B<-v | --version > Command Version.
|
|
|

=head1 RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
0 The command completed successfully.
|
|
|
|
1 An error has occurred.

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
1. To register gangliamon plug-in module (which interacts with Ganglia monitoring software) to monitor the xCAT cluster, enter:
|
|
|
|
monadd gangliamon
|
|
|
|
2. To register rmcmon plug-in module (which interacts with IBM's RSCT monitoring software) to monitor the xCAT cluster and have it feed the node liveness status to xCAT's I<nodelist> table, enter:
|
|
|
|
monadd rmcmon -n
|
|
|
|
This will also add the I<configrmcnode> to the I<postscripts> table. To view the content of the I<postscripts> table, enter:
|
|
tabdump postscritps
|
|
#node,postscripts,comments,disable
|
|
"service","servicenode",,
|
|
"xcatdefaults","syslog,remoteshell,configrmcnode",,
|
|
|
|
3. To register xcatmon plug-in module to feed the node liveness status to xCAT's I<nodelist> table, enter:
|
|
|
|
monaddt rmcmon -n -s [ping-interval=2]
|
|
|
|
where 2 is the number of minutes between the pings.
