Hi Dmitriy, Thank you for oyur answer:) It clarified a part of my issue. MY architecture is: an unbound dns server with a hobbit client. the hobbit client should run a script which gets data somehow from unbound dns and than send it to hobbit server. [hobbit or xymon is the same application, the name difference is based on some copyright issues.] about running unbound-control stat command here I get several errors: root at unbound3:~# unbound-control start root at unbound3:~# unbound-control stats error: Error setting up SSL_CTX client key and cert 4281:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory:bss_file.c:352:fopen('/var/unbound/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound_control.pem','r') 4281:error:20074002:BIO routines:FILE_CTRL:system lib:bss_file.c:354: 4281:error:140AD002:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file:system lib:ssl_rsa.c:470: I used the tutorial from: http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-using-unbound-nameserver-on-debian-etch in config file: I have the following: remote-control: control-enable: yes # what interfaces are listened to for remote control. # give 0.0.0.0 and ::0 to listen to all interfaces. # control-interface: 127.0.0.1 # control-interface: ::1 # port number for remote control operations. # control-port: 953 # unbound server key file. server-key-file: "/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound_server.key" # unbound server certificate file. server-cert-file: "/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound_server.pem" # unbound-control key file. control-key-file: "/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound_control.key" # unbound-control certificate file. control-cert-file: "/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound_control.pem" based on the info I have here: http://unbound.net/documentation/howto_setup.html it should be fine I am using ubuntu server, latest version. Thank you for any ideea, help:) Gabi I made a fresh install on ubuntu, using the example here: http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-using-unbound-nameserver-on-debian-etch after that, i added in config file the info from: http://www.unbound.net/documentation/howto_setup.html so, if i make a hoobit script where i run the unbound-control set and than replace On Wed, May 13, 2009 at 8:08 PM, Dmitriy Demidov <dima_bsd at inbox.lv> wrote: > On Thursday 07 May 2009, Gabriel Petrescu wrote: > > Hi :) > > I try to get statistics from unbound to hobbit aka xymon. > > I know there is a plugin for Munin.. but it's not quite what I need. > > Do you tried before the combination unbound & xymon? > > Can you give me a clue , direction? > > Thank you:) > > > > Gabi > > Hi Gabi. > > I found this tutorial about how to setup custom graphs in Xymon: > http://www.hobbitmon.com/hobbit/help/howtograph.html > From the example of custom scripts I can see that Xymon expects input in > format of "name : value", where each pair should be on new line. > In the given example, script what parse /proc/slabinfo generates this > output: > inode_cache : 7100160 > dentry_cache : 752640 > ...etc > > When you run unbound-control stats command it produces output in this > format: > thread0.num.queries=0 > thread0.num.cachehits=0 > thread0.num.cachemiss=0 > thread0.recursion.time.avg=0.000000 > ...etc > > All you need to do is sed stats output: > unbound-control stats | sed s/=/" : "/ > thread0.num.queries : 0 > thread0.num.cachehits : 0 > thread0.num.cachemiss : 0 > thread0.recursion.time.avg : 0.000000 > ...etc > > Or, if dots in variables names are unvanted use this: > unbound-control stats | awk -F '=' '{gsub(/\./,"_",$1);print($1" : "$2)}' > thread0_num_queries : 0 > thread0_num_cachehits : 0 > thread0_num_cachemiss : 0 > thread0_recursion_time_avg : 0.000000 > ...etc > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
