similar to: OT: Installing munin-node cleanly in spite of RPM

Hi all, I am new to puppet and also newcomer in this group. I heart good things about puppet and I decided to give it a try 2 weeks now. After reading various documentation, I began using the complete configuration collection of puppet modules (thanks to David). But I have a problem with the munin module. It works fine, except that it seems to not export virtual ressources. Let me give more detail

Just noticed that my munin installation stopped showing any data after the last "big" update. I installed a lot of updates for CentoS, but there was also a munin update coming from rpmforge. However, in yum.log there is no munin listed. But I'm sure I updated munin to 1.2.5-2.el5.rf as well. Does yum log only the centos repo's? The problem seems to be with the creation of

Hey Guys, I am trying to wrap some loose ends up before we close tomorrow and have one last thing. I have been asked to monitor tunnel bandwidth for vpn clients over the holidays and whipped up a quick Munin plugin to do this. It works well but one problem is that when a client disconnects, the plugin stops submitting graph data for it, so the png's don't show the user anymore, kinda hard

Hello all. Probably this question has already been posed in the context of another software, but I am unable to find it. I would like to implement a module which should manage munin-clients as well as the munin-server. Here is what I am thinking about implementing: - There are two classes: munin::client and munin::server - munin::clients'' configuration will be managed automatically.

Anyone here running Munin w/ the CGI graphs? I must have missed something in the munin wiki as its creating the correct html, yet the only errors I get are apache suggesting it can't find the files for the png's? The cgi script has all the perl modules it requires installed. Thanks, jlc

Hi there, is anyone using munin to monitor connections to dovecot? If someone does, which plugin is used? Regards Patrick

I''ve been thinking about how to make Puppet a killer app, and I think there is one specific thing that could be done to help make that happen: People using Puppet now to consistently state what they *really* wish Puppet could do for them -- the recent thread around Puppet on Windows is in that vein, but it''s not specific enough. For example, I''d like to know what

Hi, We''re using thin stored configs heavily to manage things like Munin and Nagios and we''re currently wondering what to do when nodes go away, or change considerably. If we get rid of a server then all it''s stored config is still present in the database, as well as it''s nagios and munin configurations. We created a script that iterates through the database

Hey all, I finally found some time to update the munin module and here it is. please configure your munin-nodes directory in: munin/manifests/init.pp prior to using this module. you also need ''file_splice'' a.k.a. the bracketeditor. see here: http://mail.madstop.com/pipermail/puppet-users/2007-June/003466.html and a slightly changed version of ''remotefile''.

Hi All, What is the best way to remotely monitor/administer a group of xen domUs across a network? We''re planning to deploy a few H/W servers with paravirtualized domUs. What are the best alternatives? What works and What doesn''t? Share your experiences.

Dear list, as my Xen3 server is finaly becomming ready for production I was wondering if anyone has written a xen usage monitoring/logging tool? Something like xm top, but with continuose logging to a (rr)database. Or a munin plugin? I can''t remember seeing anything simmilar on the list. BTW: where does xm top get the NETTX(k) and NETRX(k) from? For a munin plugin I''d

Hi there, I have a strange problem with the exported ressources in the munin module I wrote. See: http://mail.madstop.com/pipermail/puppet-users/2007-June/003179.html For some reason it stopped working. On the munin::host I get the error that: err: Could not retrieve configuration: Exported resource File[munin_def_XY_4949] cannot override local resource The munin::host is also a

Greetings, I''m trying to wrap my head around a solution to a problem I''m facing with an exported resources configuration I have. I''m using the following simple config to build a munin configuration: @@file { "/etc/munin/munin.conf.d/${::fqdn}.node": content => "[All Hosts;${::fqdn}] address ${ipaddress_eth0} use_node_name yes\n\n", tag

Hello list. I''ve the following parent class: class munin::client { ... munin::client::plugin { "postfix_mailqueue": name => "postfix_mailqueue", enable => "false" } } And the following inherited class: class munin::client::plugins::postfix inherits munin::client { munin::client::plugin {

Hi, I was playing with the munin plugin in nsd4 beta4, and saw some strange errors. Directly after starting nsd on linux, I'm seeing: $ ps ax -o pid,ppid,user,args | grep nsd 1638 1 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf 1641 1638 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf 1647 1641 nsd /usr/sbin/nsd -c /etc/nsd/nsd.conf $ sudo munin-run nsd_munin_memory

G''day. I am wondering what the current best practice for building a single file out of distributed fragments is with puppet. Specifically, my problem: 1. Install munin-node on arbitrary machines. 2. Install ''munin.conf'' as a single file on one machine, containing a configuration stanza for every machine that munin-node is installed on. The current best practice

The munin rpms from EPEL failed to install correctly on a particular machine. This is why # /usr/sbin/groupadd -r munin groupadd: Can't get unique system GID (no more available GIDs) # but I don't understand why this happens. Even after checking the man pages for groupadd and login.defs, I have been unable to determine what the settings for SYS_GID_MIN/SYS_GID_MAX on RHEL/CentOS are.

Hey folks, I'm setting up some kickstart files for our standard configs, and need to install munin-node, which of course does not come from you folks, So I set up the Dag Wieers repository but in the repo file I set it to "disabled" so that it will never get used by mistake. Then when adding munin-node I do : yum --enablerepo=dag -y install munin-node But that pulls in a bunch
