Applications

You can use Application support to graph performance statistics of many applications.

Different applications support a variety of ways to collect data:

  1. By direct connection to the application
  2. snmpd extend
  3. The agent.

The monitoring of applications could be added before or after the hosts have been added to LibreNMS.

If multiple methods of collection are listed you only need to enable one.

SNMP Extend

When using the snmp extend method, the application discovery module will pick up which applications you have set up for monitoring automatically, even if the device is already in LibreNMS. The application discovery module is enabled by default for most *nix operating systems, but in some cases you will need to manually enable the application discovery module.

SUDO

One major thing to keep in mind when using SNMP extend is these run as the snmpd user that can be an unprivileged user. In these situations you need to use sudo.

To test if you need sudo, first check the user snmpd is running as. Then test if you can run the extend script as that user without issue. For example if snmpd is running as 'Debian-snmp' and we want to run the extend for proxmox, we check that the following run without error:

sudo -u Debian-snmp /usr/local/bin/proxmox

If it doesn't work, then you will need to use sudo with the extend command. For the example above, that would mean adding the line below to the sudoers file:

Debian-snmp ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/proxmox

Finally we would need to add sudo to the extend command, which would look like that for proxmox:

extend proxmox /usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/proxmox

JSON Return Optimization Using librenms_return_optimizer

While the json_app_get does allow for more complex and larger data to be easily returned by a extend and the data to then be worked with, this can also sometimes result in large returns that occasionally don't play nice with SNMP on some networks.

librenms_return_optimizer fixes this via taking the extend output piped to it, gzipping it, and then converting it to base64. The later is needed as net-snmp does not play that nice with binary data, converting most of the non-printable characters to .. This does add a bit of additional overhead to the gzipped data, but still tends to be result in a return that is usually a third of the size for JSONs items.

The change required is fairly simply. So for the portactivity example below...

extend portactivity /etc/snmp/extends/portactivity smtps,http,imap,imaps,postgresql,https,ldap,ldaps,nfsd,syslog-conn,ssh,matrix,gitea

Would become this...

extend portactivity /usr/local/bin/lnms_return_optimizer -- /etc/snmp/extends/portactivity smtps,http,imap,imaps,postgresql,https,ldap,ldaps,nfsd,syslog-conn,ssh,matrix,gitea

The requirements for this are Perl, MIME::Base64, and Gzip::Faster.

Installing on FreeBSD...

pkg install p5-MIME-Base64 p5-Gzip-Faster wget
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/utils/librenms_return_optimizer -O /usr/local/bin/librenms_return_optimizer
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/librenms_return_optimizer

Installing on Debian...

apt-get install zlib1g-dev cpanminus wget
cpanm Gzip::Faster
cpanm MIME::Base64
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/utils/librenms_return_optimizer -O /usr/local/bin/librenms_return_optimizer
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/librenms_return_optimizer

Enable the application discovery module

  1. Edit the device for which you want to add this support
  2. Click on the Modules tab and enable the applications module.
  3. This will be automatically saved, and you should get a green confirmation pop-up message.

Enable-application-module

After you have enabled the application module, it would be wise to then also enable which applications you want to monitor, in the rare case where LibreNMS does not automatically detect it.

Note: Only do this if an application was not auto-discovered by LibreNMS during discovery and polling.

Enable the application(s) to be discovered

  1. Go to the device you have just enabled the application module for.
  2. Click on the Applications tab and select the applications you want to monitor.
  3. This will also be automatically saved, and you should get a green confirmation pop-up message.

Enable-applications

Agent

The unix-agent does not have a discovery module, only a poller module. That poller module is always disabled by default. It needs to be manually enabled if using the agent. Some applications will be automatically enabled by the unix-agent poller module. It is better to ensure that your application is enabled for monitoring. You can check by following the steps under the SNMP Extend heading.

Apache

Either use SNMP extend or use the agent.

Note that you need to install and configure the Apache mod_status module before trying the script.

SNMP Extend

  1. Download the script onto the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/apache-stats.py -O /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
    

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
    

  3. Create the cache directory, '/var/cache/librenms/' and make sure that it is owned by the user running the SNMP daemon.

    mkdir -p /var/cache/librenms/
    

  4. Verify it is working by running /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py Package urllib3 for python3 needs to be installed. In Debian-based systems for example you can achieve this by issuing:

    apt-get install python3-urllib3
    

  5. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

    extend apache /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
    

  6. Restart snmpd on your host

  7. Test by running

    snmpwalk <various options depending on your setup> localhost NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendOutput2Table
    

Agent

Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the apache script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/

  1. Verify it is working by running /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/apache (If you get error like "Can't locate LWP/Simple.pm". libwww-perl needs to be installed: apt-get install libwww-perl)

  2. Create the cache directory, '/var/cache/librenms/' and make sure that it is owned by the user running the SNMP daemon.

    mkdir -p /var/cache/librenms/
    

  3. On the device page in Librenms, edit your host and check the Apache under the Applications tab.

Asterisk

A small shell script that reports various Asterisk call status.

SNMP Extend

  1. Download the asterisk script to /etc/snmp/ on your asterisk server.

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/asterisk -O /etc/snmp/asterisk
    

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/asterisk
    

  3. Configure ASCLI in the script.

  4. Verify it is working by running /etc/snmp/asterisk

  5. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

    extend asterisk /etc/snmp/asterisk
    

  6. Restart snmpd on your host

The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend heading top of page.

backupninja

A small shell script that reports status of last backupninja backup.

SNMP Extend

  1. Download the backupninja script to /etc/snmp/backupninja.py on your backuped server.
    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/backupninja.py -O /etc/snmp/backupninja.py`
    
  2. Make the script executable:

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/backupninja.py
    

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

    extend backupninja /etc/snmp/backupninja.py
    

  4. Restart snmpd on your host

BIND9 aka named

  1. Create stats file with appropriate permissions:

    touch /var/cache/bind/stats
    chown bind:bind /var/cache/bind/stats
    
    Change user:group to the user and group that's running bind/named.

  2. Bind/named configuration:

    options {
        ...
        statistics-file "/var/cache/bind/stats";
        zone-statistics yes;
        ...
    };
    

  3. Restart your bind9/named after changing the configuration.

  4. Verify that everything works by executing rndc stats && cat /var/cache/bind/stats. In case you get a Permission Denied error, make sure you changed the ownership correctly.

  5. Also be aware that this file is appended to each time rndc stats is called. Given this it is suggested you setup file rotation for it. Alternatively you can also set zero_stats to 1 in the config.

  6. The script for this also requires the Perl module File::ReadBackwards.

    FreeBSD       => p5-File-ReadBackwards
    CentOS/RedHat => perl-File-ReadBackwards
    Debian/Ubuntu => libfile-readbackwards-perl
    

If it is not available, it can be installed by cpan -i File::ReadBackwards.

  1. You may possibly need to configure the agent/extend script as well.

The config file's path defaults to the same path as the script, but with .config appended. So if the script is located at /etc/snmp/bind, the config file will be /etc/snmp/bind.config. Alternatively you can also specify a config via -c $file.

Anything starting with a # is comment. The format for variables are $variable=$value. Empty lines are ignored. Spaces and tabs at either the start or end of a line are ignored.

Content of an example /etc/snmp/bind.config . Please edit with your own settings.

rndc = The path to rndc. Default: /usr/bin/env rndc
call_rndc = A 0/1 boolean on whether or not to call rndc stats.
    Suggest to set to 0 if using netdata. Default: 1
stats_file = The path to the named stats file. Default: /var/cache/bind/stats
agent = A 0/1 boolean for if this is being used as a LibreNMS
    agent or not. Default: 0
zero_stats = A 0/1 boolean for if the stats file should be zeroed
    first. Default: 0 (1 if guessed)

If you want to guess at the configuration, call the script with -g and it will print out what it thinks it should be.

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the bind shell script, to the desired host.

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/bind -O /etc/snmp/bind
    

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/bind
    

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

    extend bind /etc/snmp/bind
    

  4. Restart snmpd on the host in question.

The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend heading top of page.

Agent

  1. Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/bind via wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/bind -O /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/bind

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/bind
    

  3. Set the variable 'agent' to '1' in the config.

BIRD2

The BIRD Internet Routing Daemon (BGP)

Due to the lack of SNMP support in the BIRD daemon, this application extracts all configured BGP protocols and parses it into LibreNMS. This application supports both IPv4 and IPv6 Peer processing.

SNMP Extend

  1. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:
extend bird2 '/usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/birdc -r show protocols all'
  1. Edit your sudo users (usually visudo) and add at the bottom:
Debian-snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/birdc

If your snmp daemon is running on a user that isnt Debian-snmp make sure that user has the correct permission to execute birdc

  1. Verify the time format for bird2 is defined. Otherwise iso short ms (hh:mm:ss) is the default value that will be used. Which is not compatible with the datetime parsing logic used to parse the output from the bird show command. timeformat protocol is the one important to be defibned for the bird2 app parsing logic to work.

Example starting point using Bird2 shorthand iso long (YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss):

timeformat base iso long;
timeformat log iso long;
timeformat protocol iso long;
timeformat route iso long;

Timezone can be manually specified, example "%F %T %z" (YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss +11:45). See the Bird 2 docs for more information

  1. Restart snmpd on your host

The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend heading top of page.

Certificate

A small python3 script that checks age and remaining validity of certificates

This script needs following packages on Debian/Ubuntu Systems:

  • python3
  • python3-openssl

Content of an example /etc/snmp/certificate.json . Please edit with your own settings.

{"domains": [
    {"fqdn": "www.mydomain.com"},
    {"fqdn": "some.otherdomain.org",
     "port": 8443},
    {"fqdn": "personal.domain.net"},
    {"fqdn": "selfsignedcert_host.domain.com",
     "cert_location": "/etc/pki/tls/certs/localhost.pem"}
]
}
a. (Required): Key 'domains' contains a list of domains to check. b. (Optional): You can define a port. By default it checks on port 443. c. (Optional): You may define a certificate location for self-signed certificates.

BorgBackup

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the shell script to the desired host.

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/borgbackup -O /etc/snmp/borgbackup
    

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/borgbackup
    

  3. Install depends.

    # FreeBSD
    pkg p5-Config-Tiny p5-JSON p5-File-Slurp p5-MIME-Base64 p5-String-ShellQuote
    # Debian
    apt-get install libconfig-tiny-perl libjson-perl libfile-slurp-perl libmime-base64-perl libstring-shellquote-perl
    # generic cpanm
    cpanm Config::Tiny File::Slurp JSON MIME::Base64 String::ShellQuote
    

  4. Set it up in cron.

    */5 * * * /etc/snmp/borgbackup 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
    

  5. Configure it. See further down below or /etc/snmp/borgbackup --help.

  6. Add the following to the SNMPD config.

    extend borgbackup /bin/cat /var/cache/borgbackup_extend/extend_return
    

  7. Restart SNMPD and wait for the device to rediscover or tell it to manually.

Config

The config file is a ini file and handled by Config::Tiny.

- mode :: single or multi, for if this is a single repo or for
        multiple repos.
    - Default :: single

- repo :: Directory for the borg backup repo.
    - Default :: undef

- passphrase :: Passphrase for the borg backup repo.
    - Default :: undef

- passcommand :: Passcommand for the borg backup repo.
    - Default :: undef

For single repos all those variables are in the root section of the config, so lets the repo is at '/backup/borg' with a passphrase of '1234abc'.

repo=/backup/borg
repo=1234abc

For multi, each section outside of the root represents a repo. So if there is '/backup/borg1' with a passphrase of 'foobar' and '/backup/derp' with a passcommand of 'pass show backup' it would be like below.

mode=multi

[borg1]
repo=/backup/borg1
passphrase=foobar

[derp]
repo=/backup/derp
passcommand=pass show backup

If 'passphrase' and 'passcommand' are both specified, then passcommand is used.

Metrics

The metrics are all from .data.totals in the extend return.

Value Type Description
errored repos Total number of repos that info could not be fetched for.
locked repos Total number of locked repos
locked_for seconds Longest time any repo has been locked.

    # FreeBSD
    pkg install p5-File-Slurp p5-MIME-Base64 p5-JSON p5-Statistics-Lite p5-File-ReadBackwards
    
    # Debian
    apt-get install libfile-slurp-perl libmime-base64-perl libjson-perl libstatistics-lite-perl libfile-readbackwards-perl
    

  4. Configure it if neeeded. Uses /usr/local/etc/http_access_log_combined_extend.json, unless specified via -c. See further below for configuration information.

  5. If on large setups where it won't complete in a timely manner, run it via cron.

    */5 * * * * root /etc/snmp/http_access_log_combined -b -q -w
    

  6. Add it to snmpd.conf.

    # if not using cron
    extend http_access_log_combined /etc/snmp/http_access_log_combined -b
    
    # if using cron

  7. Either manually enable it for the device, rediscover the device, or wait for it to be rediscovered.

Key Type Description
access hash A hash of access logs to monitor. The key is the reporting name while the value is the path to it.
error hash A hash of errors logs to monitor. The key is the reporting name while the value is the path to it. Must have a matching entry in access
auto boolean, 0/1 If auto mode should be used or not. If not defined and .access is not defined, then it will default to 1. Other wise it is undef, false.
auto_dir string The dir to look for files in. Default: /var/log/apache/
auto_end_regex string What to match files ending in. Default: .log$
auto_access_regex string What will be prepended to the end regexp for looking for access log files. Default: -access
auto_error_regex string What will be prepended to the end regexp for looking for error log files. Default: -error

Auto will attempt to generate a list of log files to process. Will look under the directory specified for files matching the built regexp. The regexp is built by joining the access/error regexps to the end regexp. so for access it would be come -access.log$.

The default auto config would look like below.

{
    "auto": 1,
    "auto_dir": "/var/log/apache/",
    "auto_end_regex": ".log$",
    "auto_access_regex": "-access",
    "auto_error_regex": "-error"
}

So lets say the log dir, /some/dir in our case, has the following files.

foo:80-access.log
foo:80-error.log
foo:443-access.log
foo:443-error.log
bar-access.log

Then the auto generated stuff would be a like below.

{
    "access":{
        "foo:80": "/some/dir/foo:80-access.log",
        "foo:443": "/some/dir/foo:443-access.log",
        "bar": "/some/dir/bar-access.log",
    },
    "error":{
        "foo:80": "/some/dir/foo:80-error.log",
        "foo:443": "/some/dir/foo:443-error.log",
    }
}

A manual config would be like below. Note that only foo has a error log that the size will be checked for and reported via the stat error_size.

{
    "auto": 0,
    "access":{
        "foo":"/var/log/www/foo.log",
        "bar:80":"/var/log/www/bar:80.log"
        "bar:443":"/var/log/www/bar:443.log"
    },
    "error":{
        "foo":"/var/log/www/foo-error.log"
    }
}
  1. (Optional) If you have SELinux in Enforcing mode, you must add a module so the script can open and read the httpd log files:
    cat << EOF > snmpd_http_access_log_combined.te
    module snmp_http_access_log_combined 1.0;
    
    require {
            type httpd_log_t;
            type snmpd_t;
            class file { open read };
    }
    
    #============= snmpd_t ==============
    
    allow snmpd_t httpd_log_t:file { open read };
    
    EOF
    checkmodule -M -m -o snmpd_http_access_log_combined.mod snmpd_http_access_log_combined.te
    semodule_package -o snmpd_http_access_log_combined.pp -m snmpd_http_access_log_combined.mod
    semodule -i snmpd_http_access_log_combined.pp

linux_config_files

linux_config_files is an application intended to monitor a Linux distribution's configuration files via that distribution's configuration management tool/system. At this time, ONLY RPM-based (Fedora/RHEL) SYSTEMS ARE SUPPORTED utilizing the rpmconf tool. The linux_config_files application collects and graphs the total count of configuration files that are out of sync and graphs that number.

Fedora/RHEL: Rpmconf is a utility that analyzes rpm configuration files using the RPM Package Manager. Rpmconf reports when a new configuration file standard has been issued for an upgraded/downgraded piece of software. Typically, rpmconf is used to provide a diff of the current configuration file versus the new, standard configuration file. The administrator can then choose to install the new configuration file or keep the old one.

MySQL

Create the cache directory, '/var/cache/librenms/' and make sure that it is owned by the user running the SNMP daemon.

mkdir -p /var/cache/librenms/

The MySQL script requires PHP-CLI and the PHP MySQL extension, so please verify those are installed.

CentOS (May vary based on PHP version)

yum install php-cli php-mysql

Debian (May vary based on PHP version)

apt-get install php-cli php-mysql

Unlike most other scripts, the MySQL script requires a configuration file mysql.cnf in the same directory as the extend or agent script with following content:

<?php
$mysql_user = 'root';
$mysql_pass = 'toor';
$mysql_host = 'localhost';
$mysql_port = 3306;

Note that depending on your MySQL installation (chrooted install for example), you may have to specify 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost. Localhost make a MySQL connection via the mysql socket, while 127.0.0.1 make a standard IP connection to mysql.

Note also if you get a mysql error Uncaught TypeError: mysqli_num_rows(): Argument #1, this is because you are using a newer mysql version which doesnt support UNBLOCKING for slave statuses, so you need to also include the line $chk_options['slave'] = false; into mysql.cnf to skip checking slave statuses

    type portmap_port_t;
    type sysctl_rpc_t;
    type device_t;
    type mountd_port_t;
    type hi_reserved_port_t;
    class tcp_socket { name_bind name_connect };
    class udp_socket name_bind;
    class dir search;
    class file { read getattr open };
    class chr_file { open ioctl read write };
}

# Allow snmpd_t to connect to tcp_socket of type portmap_port_t
allow snmpd_t portmap_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect;
allow snmpd_t hi_reserved_port_t:tcp_socket name_bind;
allow snmpd_t hi_reserved_port_t:udp_socket name_bind;

# Allow snmpd_t to perform open, ioctl, read, and write operations on chr_file of type device_t
allow snmpd_t device_t:chr_file { open ioctl read write };

# this policy allows : 
# zfs extension (fixes root needs to run this)
# nfs extension (fixes file not found error)

Metric Notes

Key Description
running_$name 0 or 1 based on if it is running or not.
oslvm___$name___$stat The a specific stat for a specific OSLVMs.
totals_$stat A stat representing a total for all stats across all OSLVMs.

Something is considered not running if it has been seen. How long something is considred to have been seen is controlled by apps.oslv_monitor.seen_age, which is the number of seconds ago it would of have to be seen. The default is 604800 which is seven days in seconds.

All time values are in seconds.

All counter stats are per second values for that time period.

Backend Notes

FreeBSD

The stats names match those produced by ps --libxo json.

Linux cgroups v2

The cgroup to name mapping is done like below.

  • systemd -> s_$name
  • user -> u_$name
  • docker -> d_$name
  • podman -> p_$name
  • anything else -> $name

The following ps to stats mapping are as below.

  • %cpu -> percent-cpu
  • %mem -> percent-memory
  • rss -> rss
  • vsize -> virtual-size
  • trs -> text-size
  • drs -> data-size
  • size -> size

"procs" is a total number of procs in that cgroup.

The rest of the values are pulled from the following files with the names kept as is.

  • cpu.stat
  • io.stat
  • memory.stat

The following mappings are done though.

  • pgfault -> minor-faults
  • pgmajfault -> major-faults
  • usage_usec -> cpu-time
  • system_usec -> system-time
  • user_usec -> user-time
  • throttled_usecs -> throttled-time

OS Updates

A small shell script that checks your system package manager for any available updates. Supports apt-get/pacman/yum/zypper package managers.

For pacman users automatically refreshing the database, it is recommended you use an alternative database location --dbpath=/var/lib/pacman/checkupdate

SNMP Extend

  2. Copy the Perl script, postfixdetailed, to the desired host

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postfixdetailed -O /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed
    

  3. Make both scripts executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed /etc/snmp/postfix-queues
    

  4. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

    extend mailq /etc/snmp/postfix-queues
    extend postfixdetailed /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed
    

  5. Restart snmpd.

  6. Install pflogsumm for your OS.

  7. Make sure the cache file in /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed is some place that snmpd can write too. This file is used for tracking changes between various values between each time it is called by snmpd. Also make sure the path for pflogsumm is correct.

  8. Run /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed to create the initial cache file so you don't end up with some crazy initial starting value. Please note that each time /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed is ran, the cache file is updated, so if this happens in between LibreNMS doing it then the values will be thrown off for that polling period.

The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend heading top of page.

NOTE: If using RHEL for your postfix server, qshape must be installed manually as it is not officially supported. CentOs 6 rpms seem to work without issues.

PowerMon

PowerMon tracks the power usage on your host and can report on both consumption and cost, using a python script installed on the host.

PowerMon consumption graph

Currently the script uses one of two methods to determine current power usage:

  • ACPI via libsensors

  • HP-Health (HP Proliant servers only)

The ACPI method is quite unreliable as it is usually only implemented by battery-powered devices, e.g. laptops. YMMV. However, it's possible to support any method as long as it can return a power value, usually in Watts.

TIP: You can achieve this by adding a method and a function for that method to the script. It should be called by getData() and return a dictionary.

Because the methods are unreliable for all hardware, you need to declare to the script which method to use. The are several options to assist with testing, see --help.

SNMP Extend

Initial setup

  1. Download the python script onto the host:

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/powermon-snmp.py -O /usr/local/bin/powermon-snmp.py
    

  2. Make the script executable:

    chmod +x /usr/local/bin/powermon-snmp.py
    

  3. Edit the script and set the cost per kWh for your supply. You must uncomment this line for the script to work:

    vi /usr/local/bin/powermon-snmp.py
    #costPerkWh = 0.15
    

  4. Choose you method below:

    • Install dependencies:

      dnf install lm_sensors
      pip install PySensors
      

    • Test the script from the command-line. For example:

      $ /usr/local/bin/powermon-snmp.py -m sensors -n -p
      {
        "meter": {
          "0": {
            "reading": 0.0
          }
        },
        "psu": {},
        "supply": {
          "rate": 0.15
        },
        "reading": "0.0"
      }
      

    If you see a reading of 0.0 it is likely this method is not supported for your system. If not, continue.

    • Obtain the hp-health package for your system. Generally there are three options:

    • If you've downloaded the standalone package, install it. For example:

      rpm -ivh hp-health-10.91-1878.11.rhel8.x86_64.rpm
      

    • Check the service is running:

      systemctl status hp-health
      

    • Test the script from the command-line. For example:

      $ /usr/local/bin/powermon-snmp.py -m hpasmcli -n -p
      {
        "meter": {
          "1": {
            "reading": 338.0
          }
        },
        "psu": {
          "1": {
            "present": "Yes",
            "redundant": "No",
            "condition": "Ok",
            "hotplug": "Supported",
            "reading": 315.0

        },
        "reading": 338.0
      }
      

    If you see a reading of 0.0 it is likely this method is not supported for your system. If not, continue.

    Finishing Up

  5. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add the following:

    extend  powermon   /usr/local/bin/powermon-snmp.py -m hpasmcli
    

    NOTE: Avoid using other script options in the snmpd config as the results may not be interpreted correctly by LibreNMS.

  6. Reload your snmpd service:

    systemctl reload snmpd
    

  7. You're now ready to enable the application in LibreNMS.

Privoxy

For this to work, the following log items need enabled for Privoxy.

debug     2 # show each connection status
debug   512 # Common Log Format
debug  1024 # Log the destination for requests Privoxy didn't let through, and the reason why.
debug  4096 # Startup banner and warnings
debug  8192 # Non-fatal errors

SNMP Extend

  1. Download the extend and make sure it is executable.

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/privoxy -O /etc/snmp/privoxy
    chmod +x /etc/snmp/privoxy
    

  2. Install the depdenencies.

    # FreeBSD
    pkg install p5-JSON p5-MIME-Base64 p5-File-Slurp p5-File-ReadBackwards p5-IPC-Run3 p5-Time-Piece
    
    # Debian
    apt-get install libjson-perl libmime-base64-perl libfile-slurp-perl libfile-readbackwards-perl libipc-run3-perl cpanminus
    cpanm Time::Piece
    
    # Generic
    cpanm Time::Piece JSON MIME::Base64 File::Slurp File::ReadBackwards IPC::Run3
    

  3. Add the extend to snmpd.conf and restart snmpd.

    extend privoxy /etc/snmp/privoxy
    

If your logfile is not at /var/log/privoxy/logfile, that may be changed via the -f option.

If privoxy-log-parser.pl is not found in your standard $PATH setting, you may will need up call the extend via /usr/bin/env with a $PATH set to something that includes it.

Once that is done, just wait for the server to be rediscovered or just enable it manually.

If you are having timeouts or there is privelege seperation issues, then it can be ran via cron like below. -w can be used to write it out and -o can be used to control where it is written to. See --help for more information.

# cron
*/5 * * * * root /etc/snmp/privoxy -w > /dev/null

# snmpd.conf
extend privoxy /bin/cat /var/cache/privoxy_extend.json.snmp

Seafile

SNMP extend script to monitor your Seafile Server

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the Python script, seafile.py, to the desired host
    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/seafile.py -O /etc/snmp/seafile.py
    

Also you have to install the requests Package for Python3. Under Ubuntu/Debian just run apt install python3-requests

  1. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/seafile.py
    

  2. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

    extend seafile /etc/snmp/seafile.py
    

  3. You will also need to create the config file, which is named seafile.json . The script has to be located at /etc/snmp/.

    {"url": "https://seafile.mydomain.org",
     "username": "[email protected]",
     "password": "password",
     "account_identifier": "name"
     "hide_monitoring_account": true
    }
    

The variables are as below.

url = Url how to get access to Seafile Server
username = Login to Seafile Server.
           It is important that used Login has admin privileges.
           Otherwise most API calls will be denied.
password = Password to the configured login.
account_identifier = Defines how user accounts are listed in RRD Graph.
                     Options are: name, email
hide_monitoring_account = With this Boolean you can hide the Account which you
                          use to access Seafile API

Note:It is recommended to use a dedicated Administrator account for monitoring.

SMART

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the Perl script, smart, to the desired host.

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/smart-v1 -O /etc/snmp/smart
    

  2. Install the depends.

    # FreeBSD
    pkg install p5-JSON p5-MIME-Base64 smartmontools
    # Debian
    apt-get install smartmontools libjson-perl libmime-base64-perl
    # CentOS
    dnf install smartmontools perl-JSON perl-MIME-Base64
    

  3. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/smart
    

  4. Setup a cronjob to run it. This ensures slow to poll disks won't result in errors.

 */5 * * * * /etc/snmp/smart -u -Z
  1. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

    extend smart /bin/cat /var/cache/smart
    

  2. You will also need to create the config file, which defaults to the same path as the script, but with .config appended. So if the script is located at /etc/snmp/smart, the config file will be /etc/snmp/smart.config. Alternatively you can also specific a config via -c.

Anything starting with a # is comment. The format for variables is $variable=$value. Empty lines are ignored. Spaces and tabes at either the start or end of a line are ignored. Any line with out a matched variable or # are treated as a disk.

#This is a comment
cache=/var/cache/smart
smartctl=/usr/bin/env smartctl
useSN=1
ada0
ada1
da5 /dev/da5 -d sat
twl0,0 /dev/twl0 -d 3ware,0
twl0,1 /dev/twl0 -d 3ware,1
twl0,2 /dev/twl0 -d 3ware,2

The variables are as below.

cache = The path to the cache file to use. Default: /var/cache/smart
smartctl = The path to use for smartctl. Default: /usr/bin/env smartctl
useSN = If set to 1, it will use the disks SN for reporting instead of the device name.
        1 is the default. 0 will use the device name.

A disk line is can be as simple as just a disk name under /dev/. Such as in the config above The line "ada0" would resolve to "/dev/ada0" and would be called with no special argument. If a line has a space in it, everything before the space is treated as the disk name and is what used for reporting and everything after that is used as the argument to be passed to smartctl.

If you want to guess at the configuration, call it with -g and it will print out what it thinks it should be.

  1. Restart snmpd on your host

The application should be auto-discovered as described at the top of the page. If it is not, please follow the steps set out under SNMP Extend heading top of page.

  1. Optionally setup nightly self tests for the disks. The exend will run the specified test on all configured disks if called with the -t flag and the name of the SMART test to run.
 0 0 * * * /etc/snmp/smart -t long

Sneck

This is for replacing Nagios/Icinga or the LibreNMS service integration in regards to NRPE. This allows LibreNMS to query what checks were ran on the server and keep track of totals of OK, WARNING, CRITICAL, and UNKNOWN statuses.

The big advantage over this compared to a NRPE are as below.

  • It does not need to know what checks are configured on it.
  • Also does not need to wait for the tests to run as sneck is meant to be ran via cron and the then return the cache when queried via SNMP, meaning a lot faster response time, especially if slow checks are being performed.
  • Works over proxied SNMP connections.

Included are alert examples. Although for setting up custom ones, the metrics below are provided.

Metric Description
ok Total OK checks
warning Total WARNING checks
critical Total CRITICAL checks
unknown Total UNKNOWN checks
errored Total checks that errored
time_to_polling Differnce in seconds between when polling data was generated and when polled
time_to_polling_abs The absolute value of time_to_polling.
check_$CHECK Exit status of a specific check $CHECK is equal to the name of the check in question. So foo would be check_foo

The standard Nagios/Icinga style exit codes are used and those are as below.

Exit Meaning
0 okay
1 warning
2 critical
3+ unknown

To use time_to_polling, it will need to enabled via setting the config item below. The default is false. Unless set to true, this value will default to 0. If enabling this, one will want to make sure that NTP is in use every were or it will alert if it goes over a difference of 540s.

lnms config:set app.sneck.polling_time_diff true

For more information on Sneck, check it out at MetaCPAN or Github.

For poking systems using Sneck, also check out boop_snoot if one wants to query those systems via the CLI. Docs on it at MetaCPAN and Github.

SNMP Extend

  1. Install the extend.
# FreeBSD
pkg install p5-JSON p5-File-Slurp p5-MIME-Base64 p5-App-cpanminus
cpanm Monitoring::Sneck

# Debian based systems
apt-get install cpanminus libjson-perl libfile-slurp-perl libmime-base64-perl
cpanm Monitoring::Sneck

# Generic
cpanm Monitoring::Sneck
  1. Configure any of the checks you want to run in /usr/local/etc/sneck.conf. You con find it documented here.

  2. Set it up in cron. This will mean you don't need to wait for all the checks to complete when polled via SNMP, which for like SMART or other long running checks will mean it timing out. Also means it does not need called via sudo as well.

*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/env PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin /usr/local/bin/sneck -u 2> /dev/null > /dev/null
  1. Set it up in the snmpd config and restart snmpd. The -c flag will tell read it to read from cache instead of rerunning the checks.
extend sneck /usr/bin/env PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin /usr/local/bin/sneck -c
  1. In LibreNMS, enable the application for the server in question or wait for auto discovery to find it.

Squid

SNMP Proxy

  1. Enable SNMP for Squid like below, if you have not already, and restart it.

    acl snmppublic snmp_community public
    snmp_port 3401
    snmp_access allow snmppublic localhost
    snmp_access deny all
    

  2. Restart squid on your host.

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add, making sure you have the same community, host, and port as above:

    proxy -v 2c -Cc -c public 127.0.0.1:3401 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495
    

For more advanced information on Squid and SNMP or setting up proxying for net-snmp, please see the links below.

http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/Snmp http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/Snmpd_proxy

Supervisord

It shows you the totals per status and also the uptime per process. That way you can add alerts for instance when there are process in state FATAL.

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the python script to the desired host.

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/supervisord.py -O /etc/snmp/supervisord.py
    
    Notice that this will use the default unix socket path. Modify the unix_socket_path variable in the script if your path differs from the default.

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/supervisord.py
    

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

    extend supervisord /etc/snmp/supervisord.py
    

  4. Restart snmpd on your host

    systemctl restart snmpd
    

Sagan

For metrics the stats are migrated as below from the stats JSON.

f_drop_percent and drop_percent are computed based on the found data.

Instance Key Stats JSON Key
uptime .stats.uptime
total .stats.captured.total
drop .stats.captured.drop
ignore .stats.captured.ignore
threshold .stats.captured.theshold
after .stats.captured.after
match .stats.captured.match
bytes .stats.captured.bytes_total
bytes_ignored .stats.captured.bytes_ignored
max_bytes_log_line .stats.captured.max_bytes_log_line
eps .stats.captured.eps
f_total .stats.flow.total
f_dropped .stats.flow.dropped

Those keys are appended with the name of the instance running with _ between the instance name and instance metric key. So uptime for ids would be ids_uptime.

The default is named 'ids' unless otherwise specified via the extend.

There is a special instance name of .total which is the total of all the instances. So if you want the total eps, the metric would be .total_eps. Also worth noting that the alert value is the highest one found among all the instances.

SNMP Extend

  1. Install the extend.

    # FreeBSD
    pkg install p5-JSON p5-File-ReadBackwards p5-File-Slurp p5-MIME-Base64 p5-Time-Piece p5-App-cpanminus
    cpanm Sagan::Monitoring
    
    # Debian
    apt-get install libjson-perl libfile-readbackwards-perl libfile-slurp-perl libmime-base64-perl cpanminus
    cpanm Sagan::Monitoring
    
    # Generic
    cpanm Sagan::Monitoring
    

  2. Setup cron. Below is a example.

    */5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/sagan_stat_check > /dev/null
    

  3. Configure snmpd.conf

    extend sagan-stats /usr/bin/env PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin sagan_stat_check -c
    

  4. Restart snmpd on your system.

You will want to make sure that sagan is setup to with the values set below for stats-json processor, for a single instance setup..

enabled: yes
time: 300
subtract_old_values: true
filename: "$LOG_PATH/stats.json"

Any configuration of sagan_stat_check should be done in the cron setup. If the default does not work, check the docs for it at MetaCPAN for sagan_stat_check

Socket Statistics (ss)

The Socket Statistics application polls ss and scrapes socket statuses. Individual sockets and address-families may be filtered out within the script's optional configuration JSON file.

  1. The following socket types are polled directly. Filtering a socket type will disable direct polling as-well-as indirect polling within any address-families that list the socket type as their child:

    dccp (also exists within address-families "inet" and "inet6")
    mptcp (also exists within address-families "inet" and "inet6")
    raw (also exists within address-families "inet" and "inet6")
    sctp (also exists within address-families "inet" and "inet6")
    tcp (also exists within address-families "inet" and "inet6")
    udp (also exists within address-families "inet" and "inet6")
    xdp
    

  2. The following socket types are polled within an address-family only:

    inet6 (within address-family "inet6")
    p_dgr (within address-family "link")
    p_raw (within address-family "link")
    ti_dg (within address-family "tipc")
    ti_rd (within address-family "tipc")
    ti_sq (within address-family "tipc")
    ti_st (within address-family "tipc")
    v_dgr (within address-family "vsock")
    v_str (within address-family "vsock")
    unknown (within address-families "inet", "inet6", "link", "tipc", and "vsock")
    

  3. The following address-families are polled directly and have their child socket types tab-indented below them. Filtering a socket type (see "1" above) will filter it from the address-family. Filtering an address-family will filter out all of its child socket types. However, if those socket types are not DIRECTLY filtered out (see "1" above), then they will continue to be monitored either directly or within other address-families in which they exist:

    inet
        dccp
        mptcp
        raw
        sctp
        tcp
        udp
        unknown
    inet6
        dccp
        icmp6
        mptcp
        raw
        sctp
        tcp
        udp
        unknown
    link
        p_dgr
        p_raw
        unknown

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the python script, ss.py, to the desired host

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/ss.py -O /etc/snmp/ss.py
    

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/ss.py
    

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

    extend ss /etc/snmp/ss.py
    

  4. (Optional) Create a /etc/snmp/ss.json file and specify:

    1. "ss_cmd" - String path to the ss binary: ["/sbin/ss"]
    2. "socket_types" - A comma-delimited list of socket types to include. The following socket types are valid: dccp, icmp6, mptcp, p_dgr, p_raw, raw, sctp, tcp, ti_dg, ti_rd, ti_sq, ti_st, u_dgr, u_seq, u_str, udp, unknown, v_dgr, v_dgr, xdp. Please note that the "unknown" socket type is represented in /sbin/ss output with the netid "???". Please also note that the p_dgr and p_raw socket types are specific to the "link" address family; the ti_dg, ti_rd, ti_sq, and ti_st socket types are specific to the "tipc" address family; the u_dgr, u_seq, and u_str socket types are specific to the "unix" address family; and the v_dgr and v_str socket types are specific to the "vsock" address family. Filtering out the parent address families for the aforementioned will also filter out their specific socket types. Specifying "all" includes all of the socket types. For example: to include only tcp, udp, icmp6 sockets, you would specify "tcp,udp,icmp6": ["all"]
    3. "addr_families" - A comma-delimited list of address families to include. The following families are valid: inet, inet6, link, netlink, tipc, unix, vsock. As mentioned above under (b), filtering out the link, tipc, unix, or vsock address families will also filter out their respective socket types. Specifying "all" includes all of the families. For example: to include only inet and inet6 families, you would specify "inet,inet6": ["all"]
      {
          "ss_cmd": "/sbin/ss",
          "socket_types": "all"
          "addr_families": "all"
      }
      
      In order to filter out uncommon/unused socket types, the following JSON configuration is recommended:
      {
          "ss_cmd": "/sbin/ss",
          "socket_types": "icmp6,p_dgr,p_raw,raw,tcp,u_dgr,u_seq,u_str,udp",
          "addr_families": "inet,inet6,link,netlink,unix"
      }
      
  5. (Optional) If SELinux is in Enforcing mode, you must add a module so the script can poll sockets:

    cat << EOF > snmpd_ss.te
    module snmp_ss 1.0;
    
    require {
        type snmpd_t;
        class netlink_tcpdiag_socket { bind create getattr nlmsg_read read setopt write };
    }
    
    #============= snmpd_t ==============
    
    allow snmpd_t self:netlink_tcpdiag_socket { bind create getattr nlmsg_read read setopt write };
    EOF
    checkmodule -M -m -o snmpd_ss.mod snmpd_ss.te
    semodule_package -o snmpd_ss.pp -m snmpd_ss.mod
    semodule -i snmpd_ss.pp
    

  6. Restart snmpd.

Suricata

SNMP Extend

  1. Install the extend.

    # FreeBSD
    pkg install p5-JSON p5-File-Path p5-File-Slurp p5-Time-Piece p5-MIME-Base64 p5-Hash-Flatten p5-Carp p5-App-cpanminus
    cpanm Suricata::Monitoring
    
    # Debian
    apt-get install libjson-perl libfile-path-perl libfile-slurp-perl libmime-base64-perl cpanminus
    cpanm Suricata::Monitoring
    
    # Generic
    cpanm Suricata::Monitoring
    

  2. Setup cron. Below is a example.

    */5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/suricata_stat_check > /dev/null
    

  3. Configure snmpd.conf

    extend suricata-stats /usr/bin/env PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin suricata_stat_check -c
    

Or if you want to use try compressing the return via Base64+GZIP...

extend suricata-stats /usr/bin/env PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin suricata_stat_check -c -b
  1. Restart snmpd on your system.

You will want to make sure Suricata is set to output the stats to the eve file once a minute. This will help make sure that it won't be to far back in the file and will make sure it is recent when the cronjob runs.

Any configuration of suricata_stat_check should be done in the cron setup. If the default does not work, check the docs for it at MetaCPAN for suricata_stat_check

Suricata Extract

SNMP

  1. Add the following to your snmpd config and restart. Path may have to be adjusted depending on where suricata_extract_submit_extend is installed to.
    extend suricata_extract /usr/local/bin/suricata_extract_submit_extend
    

Then just wait for the system to be rediscovered or enable it manually for the server in question.

Systemd

The systemd application polls systemd and scrapes systemd units' load, activation, and sub states.

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the python script, systemd.py, to the desired host

    wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/systemd.py -O /etc/snmp/systemd.py
    

  2. Make the script executable

    chmod +x /etc/snmp/systemd.py
    

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

    extend systemd /etc/snmp/systemd.py
    

  4. (Optional) Create a /etc/snmp/systemd.json file and specify:

    1. "systemctl_cmd" - String path to the systemctl binary [Default: "/usr/bin/systemctl"]
    2. "include_inactive_units" - True/False string to include inactive units in results [Default: "False"]
      {
          "systemctl_cmd": "/bin/systemctl",
          "include_inactive_units": "True"
      }
      
  5. (Optional) If you have SELinux in Enforcing mode, you must add a module so the script can access systemd state:

    cat << EOF > snmpd_systemctl.te
    module snmpd_systemctl 1.0;
    
    require {
            type snmpd_t;
            type systemd_systemctl_exec_t;
            type init_t;
            class file { execute execute_no_trans map open read };
            class unix_stream_socket connectto;
            class system status;
    }
    
    #============= snmpd_t ==============
    allow snmpd_t init_t:system status;
    allow snmpd_t init_t:unix_stream_socket connectto;
    allow snmpd_t systemd_systemctl_exec_t:file { execute execute_no_trans map open read };
    EOF
    checkmodule -M -m -o snmpd_systemctl.mod snmpd_systemctl.te
    semodule_package -o snmpd_systemctl.pp -m snmpd_systemctl.mod
    semodule -i snmpd_systemctl.pp
    

  6. Restart snmpd.

TinyDNS aka djbdns

Agent

Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the tinydns script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/

Note: We assume that you use DJB's Daemontools to start/stop tinydns. And that your tinydns instance is located in /service/dns, adjust this path if necessary.

  1. Replace your log's run file, typically located in /service/dns/log/run with:

    #!/bin/sh
    exec setuidgid dnslog tinystats ./main/tinystats/ multilog t n3 s250000 ./main/
    

  2. Create tinystats directory and chown:

    mkdir /service/dns/log/main/tinystats
    chown dnslog:nofiles /service/dns/log/main/tinystats
    

  3. Restart TinyDNS and Daemontools: /etc/init.d/svscan restart Note: Some say svc -t /service/dns is enough, on my install (Gentoo) it doesn't rehook the logging and I'm forced to restart it entirely.

Unbound

Unbound configuration:

# Enable extended statistics.
server:
        extended-statistics: yes
        statistics-cumulative: yes

remote-control:
        control-enable: yes
