= Collectd SOP
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Collectd ( https://collectd.org/ ) is a client/server setup that gathers
|
||
|
|
system information from clients and allows the server to display that
|
||
|
|
information over various time periods.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Our server instance runs on log01.phx2.fedoraproject.org and most other
|
||
|
|
servers run clients that connect to the server and provide it with data.

Purpose::

provide load and system information on servers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The collectd roles configure collectd on the various machines:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
collectd/base - This is the base client role for most servers.
|
||
|
|
collectd/server - This is the server for use on log01. collectd/other -
|
||
|
|
There's various other subroles for different types of clients.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Web interface
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The server web interface is available at:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/collectd/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Restarting
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
collectd runs as a normal systemd or sysvinit service, so you can:
|
||
|
|
systemctl restart collectd or service collectd restart to restart it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Removing old hosts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Collectd keeps information around until it's deleted, so you may need to
|
||
|
|
sometime go remove data from a host or hosts thats no longer used. To do
|
||
|
|
this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[arabic]
|
||
|
|
. Login to log01
|
||
|
|
. cd /var/lib/collectd/rrd
|
||
|
|
. sudo rm -rf oldhostname
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
