Monitoring

  • munin graphs
  • monit service check & alarm system

monit

syntax is a bit tricky, but it is a reliable system..

TBD

monit mailq via external script: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/monit-general/2015-01/msg00015.html

munin

“Munin is a networked resource monitoring tool that can help analyze resource trends and “what just happened to kill our performance?” problems”… http://munin-monitoring.org/

  • “munin” is the central server - run as cronjob every 5 min
  • “munin-node” is a client - run as service

Configuration:

http://munin-monitoring.org/wiki/munin-node-configure

Plugin base setup:

munin-node-configure --suggest   # test 
munin-node-configure --shell     # install symlinks

Test a plugin:

munin-run <plugin-name>

Test Server connection:

It should reply with the same hostname as setup in munin.conf. If not, edit munin-node.conf host_name on client

telnet <ip or localhost> <port>   # default port is 4949

Debug:

http://munin-monitoring.org/wiki/FAQ_no_graphs

access munin-nodes via SSH tunnel

it is possible to tunnel the master's requests over ssh, instead of opening another port: run this on the node:

ssh -L 4950:localhost:4949 -f -N -p22 -M -S /var/run/ssh_tunnel_xs.sock -o ExitOnForwardFailure=yes root@10.23.0.2

this tunnels munin port 4949 on the node to port 4950 on the master, using a socket to be able to stop the tunnel:

ssh -S /var/run/ssh_tunnel_xs.sock -O exit root@10.23.0.2

SSH tunnel init script to autostart on boot: sshtunnel.sh


autossh would be better to keep the connection, but this doesnt work: FIXME

autossh -M 4951 -N -R 4949:localhost:4950 -p22 root@10.23.0.2  


edit /etc/munin/munin.conf to access the node on localhost:

[nodebox]
  address 127.0.0.1
  use_node_name yes
  port 4950 

use ~/.ssh/authorized_keys to authenticate. protect the key by prepending these options:

from="10.23.0.1",command="/bin/false",no-pty,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding,no-port-forwarding,permitopen="localhost:4949"
ssh-dss AAAAB3......
